Discovery of ABO Groups (1901)

ABO Blood Group System
Discovered by Karl Landsteiner in 1901
Three blood groups- A, B and O
Fourth group AB discovered by Descastello and
Sturli in 1902
Landsteiner’s Rule - Reciprocal antibodies present in
serum to antigens lacking on the red cells

Inheritance of ABO Blood Groups
Follows Mendelian principles
A and B genes co-dominant
O gene is amorphic
Three allelic genes -A, B & O
ABO gene on chromosome 9q34
Discovered by Yamamoto in 1990
A gene - 1062 bp
B gene - 1062 bp

Bombay Phenotype
First reported by Bhende, Bhatia et al in Bombay in 1952
Red cells lack A, B and H antigens
Serum has anti-A, anti-B and anti-H antibodies
Red cells show no reaction with anti-H
Frequency of this group in Bombay estimated to be about
1 in 7600 while in South West districts of Maharashtra
about 1 in 4500

Development of ABO Antigens & Antibodies
Antigens - 6th week of fetal life Full expression -3 years after birth Glycoproteins, can be Glycolipids or Glycosphingolipids present on most tissues
RBC, endothelial cells, platelets, lymphocytes, epithelial cells.
Soluble form in secretions saliva, tears, urine, bile, milk, digestive juice, amniotic
fluid

Antibodies- after first few months of life too low for detection until 3- 6 months of age Antibody levels- peak at 5 to 10 years of age Immunoglobulin class – usually IgM and few IgG Activate compliments Naturally occurring antibodies

Clinical significance• Cause immediate intravascular red cell destruction • Which can give rise to severe and fatal HTR.

• Seldom cause HDN , usually mild

The ABO Blood Group System
Blood group Antigen on RBC Antibody in plasma
A A Anti- B
B B Anti-A
AB A &B No antibody
O No antigen Anti-A & Anti-B

Blood Grouping
Cell grouping- test RBCs with Standard antisera
Serum grouping- test serum with known cells
Discrepancy if cell and serum grouping do not
agree

Rh Blood Groups
Over 52 antigens comprises the Rh blood group system. Rh D is the most potent antigen amongst all. other important antigens C, E, c, eNon glycosylated proteinsRh antibodies – immune antibodiesAntibodies are clinically significant as causes HTR or HDN.

Other Blood Groups
• 26 blood groups have been known
Routinely not typed As antibodies are not of the regular occurrence Most of the antigens are not potent to stimulate antibody
Recipient having antibody to the antigen present on donor’s red cells may experience reaction.
Cross matching / antibody screening detects such antibodies
