Factors Influencing the Immunization of Rh - negative Mothers
According to Nevanlinna and Vainio (1962) the probability that an Rh-negative mother who has had two Rh-positive children will be immunized is 4-5%. In the third and later births the probability of immunization decreases rapidly. The reason why most mothers do not become immunized is intriguing. It may depend on individual differences in immunological reactivity, and perhaps the response of som...
متن کاملDemonstration of foetal cells by chromosome analysis of maternal blood.
Chromosome analysis of peripheral blood cultured cells was carried out on 42 pregnancies to prove the Y-chromosome originated in the transplacental foetal cells. The forecast of the foetal sex was confirmed after birth in 41 cases, that is, 22 gravidae were supposed to be male foetus and 19 females. The rate of agreement between the prenatal diagnosis and the postnatal sex was 85.3%. The misint...
متن کاملExperiments on the maternal-foetal barrier in the mouse. I. A test for the transmission of maternal erythrocytes across the mouse placenta following x-irradiation.
EXPOSURE of new-born mammals and birds to foreign cells can induce a specific immunological non-reactivity ('tolerance') towards grafts of donor tissues later in life. In the case of mammals, if large numbers of maternal cells were to leak into the foetal circulation during pregnancy, one possible immunological consequence would be that the offspring would be tolerant of the mother's tissues in...
متن کاملMaternal foetal iron relationship.
The relationship between maternal and foetal iron nutrition has evoked considerable interest and debate. In pregnancy the demand for iron is increased by the mother’s need to expand her red cell mass to fulfill the requirements of the developing foetus. Foetal hon is derived solely from the mother through the active transport function of the placenta, and the quantity transferred might reasonab...
متن کاملMechanisms of activation of maternal behaviour in mammals.
In mammals, the activation of maternal behaviour depends on internal maternal factors related with parturition. The nature of these factors may vary between species, although oestradiol, foetus expulsion and intracerebral oxytocin are the most commonly encountered. They induce a period of specific receptivity to some sensory cues provided by the neonate. These cues (tactile, olfactory, auditory...
