What is the dinosaur blood type?

0 1. What do you know about "dinosaur blood"

As we all know, people's blood types are generally divided into four types: A, B, O and AB, which belong to ABO blood group system. Panda blood, which is familiar to everyone in rare blood group, belongs to Rh blood group system, while Mumbai-type and Mumbai-type dinosaur blood belongs to Hh blood group system.

Mumbai type was first discovered in Mumbai, India in 1952, and a blood group similar to Mumbai type was found in 196 1 year, which is called "Mumbai-like type". Because there are no or only a few A and B antigens on red blood cells, H antigen on red blood cells is missing, which is easy to be misjudged as O blood in routine blood group identification, which brings potential safety hazards to clinical blood transfusion.

The so-called "dinosaur blood" should actually be called "Mumbai-like blood type", which was first discovered in Mumbai, India, hence the name. At present, there are 43 known red blood cell blood group systems, and the most common one is ABO blood group system, which is 00 1. Another well-known Rh blood group system is 004. Mumbai-like blood group is 0 18 blood group system, which is a rare H-series phenotype.

The origin of dinosaur blood is that it is a special blood type produced by gene mutation.

The name of dinosaur hematology is Mumbai blood group. It ranks in the top five in the world's most rare blood group table, and its main feature is the lack of H antigen on red blood cells.

Human red blood cells with ABO blood group must have H antigen in order to synthesize A antigen and B antigen.
