Introduction Hemolytic reactions are adverse complications associated with red blood cell
transfusion. These reactions are associated with clinically important erythrocyte antigens …

Background Duffy (FY) blood group genotyping is important in transfusion medicine
because Duffy alloantibodies are associated with delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions …

The Duffy (FY) blood group system is clinically significant in transfusion medicine because
FY antibodies are involved in hemolytic transfusion reactions and hemolytic disease of the …

Background: Knowing the prevalence of blood group antigens in a given population is
important to prevent hemo-lytic reactions. The Duffy blood group system (FY) has two main …

Background Tunisia was described to as genetically heterogenous. Besides the 1% native
Berber, the genetically influence of the Europeans seems much larger than that of sub …

Objective Find the allele frequencies of Duffy blood group antigens in donor population from
northern Pakistan. Design Cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study Armed Forces …

ACKR1, located on chromosome 1q23. 2, is the gene that encodes a glycoprotein
expressing the Duffy blood group antigens. This gene is transcribed in two mRNA variants …

Background: The Duffy blood group system, besides its relevance in transfusion medicine, is
of major interest for population genetics. In fact, the Duffy molecule is the only red cell …

Molecular genetic studies on Duffy blood group antigens have identified mutations
underlying rare FY* Null and FY* X alleles. FY* Null has a high frequency in Blacks …

ABSTRACT Background and Objective: The Duffy blood group is clinically significant in
transfusion medicine, and is based on the presence of glycoproteins known as Fy antigens …
