The expression of the Duffy Antigen/Receptor for Chemokines (DARC) on red blood cells
(RBC) has been commonly determined using hemagglutination tests. Because the vast …

The distribution of the Fy gene was studied in 1,207 Israeli Jews and 509 Arabs. The Fy (ab-
) phenotype (FyFy) was observed in Moslem, Christian and Druze Arabs, and in Jewish …

Fy^ a antibodies were detected in 5 Fy (ab-) black patients during a 5-year period. The Duffy
phenotype was confirmed using anti-Fy^ a, anti-Fy^ b, and anti-Fy3 by an adsorption-elution …

A murine monoclonal antibody (mAb i3A; IgG1, kappa light chain) was obtained using
human red blood cells as immunogen. The antibody showed Fy6 specificity since it …

BACKGROUND: The Duffy (Fy) blood group (also known as Duffy antigen receptor for
chemokines, or DARC) may be involved in regulation of the level of circulating …

Duffy-related Fy3, Fy5, and Fs antigens on red cells of various species of primates were
characterized and compared to the findings of others. While most species appear to be …

Blood group antigens are inherited traits that may play a role in immune and inflammatory
processes. We investigated associations between blood groups and circulating …

All of the antigenic determinants of the Duffy blood group system are in a glycoprotein (gp-
Fy), which is encoded by a single-copy gene (FY) located on chromosome 1. gp-Fy is also …

The nonerythroid expression of the Duffy blood group protein (gp-Fy) was confined to certain
cell types. Immunocytochemistry studies of the kidney showed gp-Fy in the endothelium of …
