Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To detect the alleles of 12 blood group systems (Rh, MNS, Duffy, Kidd, Kell, Diego, Dombrock, Yt, Colton, Scianna, Lutheran and Lw) of Dongxiang ethnic group in Gansu province, and understand the characteristics of rare blood group alleles common in Dongxiang ethnic group, in order to provide a basis for safe blood transfusion and the establishment of blood group gene bank.
METHODS:The alleles of 12 blood group systems were classified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 100 people from Dongxiang ethnic group in Gansu province, and the differences of gene frequency compared to other areas in China were analyzed.
RESULTS:The allele frequencies of Rh, MNS, and Dombrock blood group systems of Dongxiang ethnic group in Gansu province were similar to northern regions. The Duffy blood group system exhibited specificity, with frequencies lower than most southern regions as well as northern regions. There were no significant differences in Kidd, Kell and Diego blood group systems compared to other regions in China. The Lua gene frequency of Lutheran blood group system was higher than all regions in China, which might be associated with genetic variation or sample selection and size. Yt, Colton, Scianna and Lw blood group genes showed monomorphic distribution, and the genotypes were YtaYta, CoaCoa, Sc1Sc1 and LwaLwa, respectively.
CONCLUSION:Rh, MNS, Duffy, Kidd, Kell, Diego, Dombrock and Lutheran blood group systems show polymorphic distribution, while Yt, Colton, Scianna and Lw blood group systems show monomorphic distribution. The distribution of blood group genes among Dongxiang ethnic group in Gansu province has its own specificity.
