What else can I help you with?
When physicians perform an organ transplant they choose a donor whose tissues match those of the recipient as closely as possible Which cell components are being matched?
Physicians match human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) between the donor and recipient. HLAs are found on the surface of cells and are essential in identifying foreign tissues. Matching HLAs helps reduce the risk of rejection in organ transplant recipients.
Why blood group O Positive is universal donor?
Blood group O Positive is considered the universal donor because it lacks A or B antigens on the surface of red blood cells. This means it can be transfused to individuals with any ABO blood type without causing an immune reaction. Additionally, the presence of the Rh antigen (Positive) ensures compatibility with Rh-positive recipients.
Why should donor atoms donate the electrons?
Donor atom should donate the electrons to get into a stable state... and sometimes to form an ionic compound..
Can O plus donate to AB negative?
Yes, O positive can donate red blood cells to AB negative. O positive is a universal donor for red blood cells, meaning it can be transfused to individuals with any blood type. However, O positive donors are not universal plasma donors for AB negative recipients.
What is the procedure in which donor marrow or stem cells are injected into a patient.?
The procedure in which donor marrow or stem cells are injected into a patient is called a stem cell transplant or bone marrow transplant. It typically involves first collecting stem cells from a donor, either from their bone marrow or peripheral blood. The patient then undergoes conditioning treatment, which may include chemotherapy or radiation to prepare their body to accept the new cells. Finally, the harvested stem cells are infused into the patient's bloodstream, where they can migrate to the bone marrow and start producing new blood cells.
Whose RB Cs are going to agglutinate the recipients or the donor in incompatible blood transfusion?
The donor
Testing for agglutination of donor RBCs by the recipients serum is called?
Cross Matching
Who wrote book regarding heart transplant recipients picking up same traits as heart donor?
Paul Pearsall wrote the book 'The heart's Code' which gives stories of recipients receiving donor heart memories
Can you live with someone eles heart?
Yes Thousands of people are the recipients of donor hearts today.
Why are AB individuals considired universal recipients?
They can receive blood from AB, A and B blood group, and also O because O is the universal donor. Hence, they are called Universal Recipients.
What is the purpose of somatic cell donor?
Somatic cells are body cells that contain a full set of chromosomes. I imagine that a somatic cell donor donates healthy body cells to someone who needs them.
An individual with which ABO blood type can theoretically donate blood to recipients of all ABO types?
An individual with type O blood can theoretically donate blood to recipients of all ABO types. This is because type O blood lacks A and B antigens on the surface of red blood cells, making it universally acceptable without triggering an immune response in recipients with A, B, AB, or O blood types. As a result, type O is often referred to as the universal donor.
How is transplant done?
Based on the source of donated kidney, kidney transplant can be classified as deceased donor or living donor transplant. Answer: To the question of HOW a kidney transplant is done. The donor kidney will be extracted including part of the urinary tract and vein/arteries. The blood is extracted from the kidney and it is flushed clean. Then transported on ice to where the recipient is. The donor kidney is transplanted into the person in their lower abdomen. They join the veins/artery etc to the recipients, having disconnected them from the existing bad kidney. They do not take out the recipients bad kidneys (unless it has tumour) but leaves them there, as no point in performing unnecessary surgery.
Which blood is considered the universal donor?
red blood cells
Who is responsible for the cost of kidney transplants?
In the UK the donor's hospital pays for everything connected with the donation process and the recipients hospital (if different) pays for all the costs involved with the recipient side of the transplant. Neither donor nor recipient pay for any of it.
Is organ transplantation possible in brain death?
Brain death must be present before organ transplantation can happen. The donor is kept on the ventilator while consent is obtained from next of kin, and also while the testing is completed on the donor for compatibility with the recipients.
