چکیده

The immunomagnetic beads method for isolation of fetal nucleated red blood cells (FNRBCs) from peripheral blood of 78 pregnant women for prenatal diagnosis was developed. The study subjects were classified into 8-10 and 11-14 weeks of gestation (n = 39 each). Peripheral blood cells were divided into two for the FNRBCs isolation using two protocols, one with anti-CD45 depletion followed by anti-CD71 and anti-GPA monoclonal antibodies and another without CD45 depletion. The use of CD45 depletion gave a slightly higher number of sorted cells but not significantly different (p > 0.05). The percentage of CD71+ and GPA+ cells obtained from 8-10 weeks and 11-14 weeks of gestation was not different (p > 0.05). The sensitivity in determining the sorted FNRBCs for male fetal sex by PCR using 8-10 and 11-14 weeks of gestation was generally 50 and 69%, respectively. The method so developed is simple and cost effective and may thus be applied for prenatal diagnosis.

Development, characterization, and use of monoclonal antibodies made to antigens expressed on the surface of fetal nucleated red blood cells.

BACKGROUND Current methods for obtaining fetal cells for prenatal diagnosis are invasive and carry a small (0.5-1.0%) but definite risk of miscarriage. An attractive alternative would be isolation of fetal cells from peripheral maternal blood using antibodies with high specificity and avidity. METHODS To generate antibodies, we purified nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) from fetal livers and ...

Isolation of fetal erythroid cells from maternal blood based on expression of erythropoietin receptors.

Fetal nucleated red cells which pass into the maternal circulation during pregnancy are a potential cell source for non-invasive prenatal genetic diagnosis. To sort these rare cells with a high degree of specificity, we focussed our attention on the erythropoietin receptor, a strictly erythroid-specific antigen. We first labelled these receptors with biotin-(sialyl)-erythropoietin, then isolate...

I-40: Non Invasive Prenatal Genetic Diagnosis;Current Status and The Future

Discovery of cell free fetal DNA in 1997 has deeply changed the outlook of prenatal diagnosis approaches as most of the clinically established screening tests are not sensitive/specific enough while the current practical diagnostic tests are also invasive in their nature. The most common prenatal screening test is routinely practiced for the diagnosis of Down syndrome (DS) which includes a 10% ...

Fetal gender determination and BclI polymorphism using nucleated erythrocytes in maternal blood.

This study demonstrated determination of fetal gender from nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) in maternal blood and attempted to apply prenatal diagnosis of hemophilia A using BclI DNA polymorphism. Venous blood was drawn from 20 pregnant women, and NRBCs were recovered by magnetic activated cell sorting and anti-GPA (glycophorin A) immunostaining. After microdissector isolation of the NRBCs, pr...

A microfluidics approach for the isolation of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) from the peripheral blood of pregnant women.

OBJECTIVE Nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) have been identified in maternal circulation and potentially provide a resource for the monitoring and diagnosis of maternal, fetal, and neonatal health and disease. Past strategies used to isolate and enrich for NRBCs are limited to complex approaches that result in low recovery and less than optimal cell purity. Here we report the development of a h...
