A comprehensive survey of both RHD and RHCE allele frequencies in sub-Saharan Africa.

Transfusion - 1 Nov 2013

Granier Thomas, Beley Sophie, Chiaroni Jacques, Bailly Pascal, Silvy Monique

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The RH system is one of the most polymorphic blood group systems with numerous allele variants affecting Rh polypeptides expression. This complexity is at the origin of difficulties for transfusion of African patients especially sickle cell disease patients requiring chronic transfusion therapy with high risk of immunization. As a complete survey of RH variants is lacking in African populations, we...
