Relative Risks of Thrombosis and Bleeding in Different ABO Blood Groups

Abstract: The ABO blood group system is composed of complex carbohydrate molecules (i.e., the A, B, and H determinants) that are widely expressed on the surface of red blood cells and in a variety of other cell and tissues. Along with their pivotal role in transfusion and transplantation medicine, the ABO antigens participate in many other physiological processes and, in particular, are important determinants of von Willebrand factor and factor VIII circulating plasma levels. The precise influence of the ABO system on h… Show more

“…The association of these SNPs with thrombosis and with the PFA-100 phenotypes suggests that this functional platelet test may be useful to estimate thrombotic risk, although further studies are needed to confirm this. Moreover, some of the SNPs have been described also in association with variations in VWF, FVIII, and/or variations in biological factors that may play indirect roles in thrombosis, such as adhesion molecules [17,18,37,38,39].…”

“…Researchers have recently determined that, the genetic "host" factors might play a role in the development of GI bleeding [16][17][18]. Among these factors, O blood type as a genetic predisposing factor has been shown to influence susceptibility to Helicobacter pylori infection, duodenal ulcer and possible bleeding tendency [11] hence facilitating the development of GI bleeding [19,20].…”

“…Furthermore, this thrombotic event was happened through the modulation of Von-Will brand Factor and Factor VIII plasma levels, which are the main risk factors for venous thrombosis. Additionally, platelet function is also compromised in O blood group [10,11]. Since the distribution of ABO blood type genes varies among different racial and ethnic groups, we designed this study to assess the role of ABO blood group system in development of GI bleeding and its short term clinical outcome in Iranian population.…”

“…Although there are studies on physiological functions of blood groups, this topic remains a mystery. Previous studies demonstrated associations between ABO blood groups and diabetes (15), obesity (16), cancer (17) and venous thrombosis (18). Previous studies showed that obesity is affected by ABO blood groups; however, the mechanism could not be clarified completely.…”
