DNA‐based typing of blood groups for the management of multiply‐transfused sickle cell disease patients

Abstract: DNA typing of blood groups by PCR-RFLP in peripheral blood WBCs contributes to the management of transfusions in SCD patients by allowing a more accurate selection of donor units.

“…The need for an easy and reliable method of identifying original blood group antigen status has led several groups to use DNA from blood as template. [8][9][10][11][12] These studies show a high degree of concordance between genotype and phenotype indicating that DNA typing is sufficient in most cases. There is, however, an advantage with our protocol that the RHC/c detection can be simultaneously carried out in one single PCR reaction without the need for RFLP and gel electrophoresis.…”

“…There is, however, an advantage with our protocol that the RHC/c detection can be simultaneously carried out in one single PCR reaction without the need for RFLP and gel electrophoresis. 8,10,13 The epitope difference between RHC and RHc is encoded in exon 2 and what identifies the RHC allele is identical to the RHD genotype. The difference between Rhc and RhC/D is enclosed in a 4247 basepair stretch of near nucleotide identity between the two genes making specific DNA detection of the RHC allele by simple PCR virtually impossible in RHD positive individuals.…”

“…Nestas situações, a genotipagem de grupos sangüíneos tem mostrado ser uma excelente alternativa 7,8 e pode ser uma ferramenta útil e eficiente. O futuro da aloimunização eritrocitária, ou seja, da redução do índice de aloimunização e das reações hemo- Apesar de existirem ainda algumas questões não respondidas em relação à resposta imune a antígenos eritrocitários, acredito que a implantação de protocolos seguros e eficientes de fenotipagem e/ou genotipagem de grupos sangüíneos pode reduzir drasticamente os riscos de desenvolvimento de aloanticorpos em pacientes que recebem transfusão sangüínea.…”

“…The discrimination between the normal HbA and the abnormal HbS is based on a single base exchange (thymine for adenine) in the 6th codon of the b-globin gene resulting in loss of the recognition site of the restriction enzyme MstII. Thus, this mutation can routinely be detected by RFLP analysis [7].…”
