Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In humans, the blood group is categorized under four groups are found: A, B, AB, and O. These blood groups are categorized on the basis of the presence or absence of surface protein. The other factor in categorizing the blood groups is the presence of

You have a patient with prostate cancer. The cancer causes blood vessels to weaken and burst. The patient has a dangerously low Hematocrit and needs a blood transfusion. When you test his blood for type, here are the results: Anti-A- agglutination, Anti-B- agglutination, Anti-Rh- no reaction.
1. List all blood types he can receive.
When you enthusiastically suggest that blood transfusions will help him, he protests that his religious beliefs disallow him from accepting transfusions. You will need to find a way to help his own body both retain the blood he has, and make new blood.
2. Based only on what we've learned so far re: blood and endocrine, come up with hypotheses about how you could do each.
3. Propose a mechanism of how EPO might work: what cells might it target, would it enter them, and what sorts of proteins might it activate? (This question references endocrine: how hormones work, and why it matters if they are water-soluble or fat-solube)
4. There is a drug called…
What is the correct answer
When a mother is Rh-, there is a chance the baby may have hemolytic disease of Newborns. Rh+
mothers do not have this issue.
Why? Rh- moms do not have the Rh antigen in their body. A Rh- mom can have a Rh+ baby
depending on the male sperm. During pregnancy, Rh- mom can be exposed to her baby's Rh
antigen.
Let's look at figure a) the first pregnancy. The Rh- mom is pregnant with a Rh+ baby. The baby
exposes the mom to Rh antigen during pregnancy. This first baby is delivered and is ok.
Figure (b) between pregnancies, the mother is exposed to the foreign antigen Rh and she makes
antibodies against Rh. She now has anti-D (anti-Rh) in her body.
Figure (c) her second pregnancy with a Rh+ baby. On the next pregnancy that the mom has with a
baby. The mom has the anti-D (anti-Rh) antibody in her system. The antibody will attack the
baby's RBCS with the Rh antigen on it.
When the baby's RBC's are attacked the RBC will hemolyse (hemo=RBC; Lysis=cut). This will
result in severe anemia. The lysed…

In your answer, describe how they can be used in pregnancy testing and in the detection of prostate cancerarrow_forwardThe book gives the example of an Rh- Mother and Rh+ fetus. You used a similar example in the video. But what happens in the reverse? Is there no problem because the antibodies from the mother don't view the baby as a threat; so, there is no need for a treatment like RhoGam for later pregnancies? I sent this question to the professor, but maybe I should have asked Bartleby. Sherri B. Greenarrow_forwardYou are solving for an unknown blood type. Drops of blood have been mixed with solutions containing the antibodies Anti- A, Anti-B and Anti-Rh. The test results are are pictured below. Using your knowledge of antibody- antigen interactions and the principle of agglutination, identify the blood type and answer the associated questionsarrow_forward
- Which of the following statements is NOT correct about the immunological incompatibility between mother and baby? Select one: a. The baby’s Rh+ blood will never get in contact with the mother’s Rh– blood during the pregnancy as the placenta does not allow fetal blood cells to mix with the maternal blood. b. When the mother has Rh– blood, anti-Rh antibody injection is given during her pregnancy to prevent any antibodies from forming. c. If the baby is Rh+ and the mother is Rh–, it does not pose a problem as long as this is the mother’s first pregnancy. d. Rh– blood has no rhesus factor proteins and therefore will produce antibodies for the Rh factor when exposed to Rh+ blood.arrow_forwardIdentify the specific blood type shown in the figure.
