Popis: A highly reduced expression of Rh antigens in the erythrocyte membrane is the main feature of RhRh antigens, RhAG and CD47 glycoproteins were studied by serologic methods in the proband, her parents and sister. Osmotic fragility and viscoelastic parameters were also examined. RHD zygosity was analyzed by RFLP-PCR. RHD, RHCE, and RHAG genes were studied by Sanger sequencing.No Rh antigens were detected in the proband by standard techniques. However, adsorption-elution and anti-RhAG tests showed that the proposita was RhThis comprehensive study determined the causes of the proband's anemia allowing the diagnosis of Rh-deficiency syndrome.
