Abstract

Objectives: High rate of alloimmunization in sickle cell disease (SCD) patients poses a significant challenge in finding compatible blood unit. Accurate determination of the blood group genotype of them can help reduce the alloimmunization risk. Tetra ARMS PCR is a novel method that has been utilized recently to investigate SNPs in diseases in a fast and reliable way.

Methods: Our study included 104 SCD and sickle thalassemia (Sβ) patients referred to Baghaei-2-Hospital of Ahvaz in 2019 using a nonrandom sampling method. Blood samples were collected for serological and molecular tests. Rh genotyping was performed using Tetra ARMS PCR and compared with the serological results.

Results: Based on the Tetra ARMS PCR method, out of 104 patients, 7 (6.7%) were d/d, 40 (38.5%) were D/d, 57 (54.8%) were D/D, 25 (24%) were C/C, 59 (56.7%) were C/c, 20 (19.3%) were c/c, 4 (3.8%) were E/E, 25 (24%) were E/e, and patients 75 (72.2%) were e/e. There were discrepancies in the serological and molecular results for 11 patients.

Conclusion: Use of Tetra ARMS PCR in combination with serological methods for determining the Rh blood group system in donors and transfusion-dependent patients represents a remarkable transformation in the field of immunohematology.

镰状细胞患者 RH 血型分型的分子基因分型与血清学诊断。

目的：镰状细胞病（SCD）患者的高同种免疫率给寻找相合的血液单位带来了巨大挑战。准确测定他们的血型基因型有助于降低同种免疫风险。Tetra ARMS PCR 是一种新型方法，最近已被用于快速、可靠地研究疾病中的 SNPs：我们的研究采用非随机抽样方法，纳入了 2019 年转诊至阿瓦士 Baghaei-2 医院的 104 名 SCD 和镰状地中海贫血（Sβ）患者。采集的血样用于血清学和分子检测。使用 Tetra ARMS PCR 进行 Rh 基因分型，并与血清学结果进行比较：根据 Tetra ARMS PCR 方法，104 名患者中，7 人（6.7%）为 d/d，40 人（38.5%）为 D/d，57 人（54.8%）为 D/D，25 人（24%）为 C/C，59 人（56.7%）为 C/c，20 人（19.3%）为 c/c，4 人（3.8%）为 E/E，25 人（24%）为 E/e，75 人（72.2%）为 e/e。11名患者的血清学和分子检测结果存在差异：结论：结合血清学方法使用 Tetra ARMS PCR 测定献血者和输血依赖患者的 Rh 血型，是免疫血液学领域的一次重大变革。

期刊介绍： Expert Review of Clinical Immunology (ISSN 1744-666X) provides expert analysis and commentary regarding the performance of new therapeutic and diagnostic modalities in clinical immunology. Members of the International Editorial Advisory Panel of Expert Review of Clinical Immunology are the forefront of their area of expertise. This panel works with our dedicated editorial team to identify the most important and topical review themes and the corresponding expert(s) most appropriate to provide commentary and analysis. All articles are subject to rigorous peer-review, and the finished reviews provide an essential contribution to decision-making in clinical immunology. Articles focus on the following key areas: • Therapeutic overviews of specific immunologic disorders highlighting optimal therapy and prospects for new medicines • Performance and benefits of newly approved therapeutic agents • New diagnostic approaches • Screening and patient stratification • Pharmacoeconomic studies • New therapeutic indications for existing therapies • Adverse effects, occurrence and reduction • Prospects for medicines in late-stage trials approaching regulatory approval • Novel treatment strategies • Epidemiological studies • Commentary and comparison of treatment guidelines Topics include infection and immunity, inflammation, host defense mechanisms, congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies, anaphylaxis and allergy, systemic immune diseases, organ-specific inflammatory diseases, transplantation immunology, endocrinology and diabetes, cancer immunology, neuroimmunology and hematological diseases.
