RH Molecular TestingAn Immucor Webinar
JOANN MOULDS PHD, MT(ASCP)SBBIMMUNOHEMATOLOGY CONSULTANT
*Levine P, Stetson RE. An Unusual Case of Intra-Group Agglutination. JAMA 1939;113(2):126-27. 1
• 25 y.o. group O woman delivered a stillborn fetus* • Transfused with 500 ml of blood from her husband• Hemolytic reaction: chills, pain in legs and back• Antibody reacted with 83/104 (80%) group O donors
Different from the ABO, MN, P blood groups
History of RH - Act I
*Landsteiner K, Wiener AS. An agglutinable factor in human blood recognized by immune sera for rhesus blood Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. and Med. 1940;43:223.
Macaca mulatta (Rhesus monkey) red blood cells injected to rabbit
History of RH- Act II
Rabbit produced an antibody named anti-Rhesus
Anti-Rhesus agglutinates RBCs of 85% random individuals
• Antibody referred to as anti-Rh (Rh for Rhesus)*• Apparently identical to Levine & Stetson’s case of HDN• 1941: Levine published a full account of the etiology of their case
History of Rh- Act III
• Newborn RBC typing:Human anti-Rh: can differentiate Rh+ and Rh-Rabbit anti-Rh: both Rh+ and Rh- typed positive
• Human & rabbit anti-Rh react against 2 different antigensHuman antibody named “anti-Rh”, defining “Rh” blood groupRabbit antibody named “anti-LW”, defining “LW” (or “Rhesus”)
• Antibody described by Levine & Stetson later identified as anti-Rh(D)

• Wiener: Rh-Hr terminologyOne locus, multiple allelic forms
• Fisher-Race: CDE terminologyThree closely linked loci producing antithetical antigens: D or d; C or c; E or e
• Rosenfield: Numerical terminologyRepresent serological data “free of bias and divorced from speculative implication”
• Rh genes at 1p36.11
• RHD and RHCE originated by ancestral duplication
Two DNA segments “Rh box” border RHD
• Closely linked genes:Each gene has10 exons~94% homology

• Mutations result in aa substitution in intramembranous portion (>90 SNPs)
• Folding & integration of the Rh protein into membrane is affected
• Reduction of D antigen >10 fold• Expresses all D epitopes• Weak D types 1, 2, 3 don’t form

Clinical Considerations for Partial D
Donors: have stimulated allo anti-D but rarePatients:• Partial D has less risk of forming anti-D than Rh
negative individuals who have no RhD protein • Those missing a single Rh epitope can make
antibody to the missing piece• Partial Ds are not necessarily compatible with
each other

*Moulds, JM. LifeShare Blood Centers unpublished data
• ~20% of D- develop anti-D after exposure to small volume of D+ blood• Rh antibodies cause severe hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTR) and
hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN)
• Accurate Rh phenotype identification remains problematic despite advances in serological methods and reagents
Clinical Relevance of Rh
HTR:o Donor: Typed negative when in fact
weak or partial antigen present –induce antibody
o Recipient: Typed positive when in fact weak or partial antigen present – produce antibody
HTR:o Donor: Typed negative when in fact
weak or partial antigen present –induce antibody
o Recipient: Typed positive when in fact weak or partial antigen present – produce antibody
HDFN (Mother)o Typed positive when in fact weak or
partial antigen present – produce antibody
o Typed negative when in fact weak (do not produce antibody) –unnecessary interventions
HDFN (Mother)o Typed positive when in fact weak or
partial antigen present – produce antibody
o Typed negative when in fact weak (do not produce antibody) –unnecessary interventions
Comprehensive Transfusion Medicine Survey by CAPSandler SG, et al. Arch Pathol Lab Med 2014:138;620-25
QUESTION 1999 2012
Routinely perform weak D-AHG on patients
58.2% 19.8%
Weak D reported as RhDpositive
50.7% 46.9%
Transfusion of RhDnegative to weak D recipient
43.5% 49.2%
Recommend RhIg to weak D transfused with RhD+
19.9% 15.7%
Rh type performed on all pregnancies at delivery
39.8% (32.3%) 48% (21.6%)
Rh Working Group
Representatives from:• AABB• CAP• ABC• ACOG• ARC• US Armed Services• Scientific consultants
• Patient Neg/Donor Pos is confusing to everyone including physicians
• 95% of women with weak D don’t make anti-DWaste of RhIgUnnecessary exposure to blood product
• 95% of weak D transfusion recipients do not need Rh negative blood

Problems With The 2+ Rule
• Differences in typing reagentspolyclonal vs monoclonal vs blends
• Method usedautomated, eg. PK 7200manual: gel, tube, etc.
• Presence of C or E in trans

Kacker et al., Transfusion 2015;55:2095Financial Implications
• Modeled a dynamic US population, tracking pregnancy-related costs, and contemplating the diversity of races
• It compared the expected financial impact of two strategies: Weak D treated as D–, at risk of HDFN and received RhIGWeak D genotyped for weak D type 1, 2, or 3 managed as D+
• Average costs of tests + RhIg administrations per pregnancy over 10 yrs.
Conservative strategy: $34.75 Alternative strategy: $34.73• Over 10 years RHD genotyping is cost-saving if <$256/test
• Availability of labs doing RH genotyping
• Cost of testing - depends on test; $100-300
• FDA approved tests - none
• TAT - 2 to 5 days
• Convincing OBs - is giving RhIg safer?
• Full RHD gene sequencing (10 exons)
• Sequencing exons encoding weak D 1,2,3
• Microarray RHD assays
• Allele specific PCR or RFLP
• Full RHD gene sequencing (10 exons)will detect all mutations in coding regions
• Sequencing exons encoding weak D 1,2,3will detect relevant weak D mutationswill detect other mutations in exons 6, 9, 1

Policies regarding RH will continue to evolve but will most certainly involve RH genotyping
