Genetics

AI Thread Summary

The discussion centers on the genetics of the Rh factor, specifically addressing the case of a woman with Rh-negative blood (Rh-) and her husband with Rh-positive blood (Rh+), along with their three children who are all Rh-positive. The key point is the compatibility of blood types and the inheritance of the Rh factor. It is noted that for any adverse effects related to Rh incompatibility to occur, the blood of the mother and baby must mix. Since the woman had normal deliveries and her children are Rh-positive, it suggests that there was no mixing of blood during delivery, which typically prevents complications associated with Rh incompatibility. This scenario illustrates how Rh-positive traits can be inherited from an Rh-positive father, even if the mother is Rh-negative.

For a reaction, the blood of the baby and mother must be mixed. If it's not, there's not going to be adverse effects.

Thread 'New Alzheimer's Treatment Clears Plaques From Brains of Mice Within Hours'

I've been reading a bunch of articles in this month's Scientific American on Alzheimer's and ran across this article in a web feed that I subscribe to. The SA articles that I've read so far have touched on issues with the blood-brain barrier but this appears to be a novel approach to the problem - fix the exit ramp and the brain clears out the plaques. https://www.sciencealert.com/new-alzheimers-treatment-clears-plaques-from-brains-of-mice-within-hours The original paper: Rapid amyloid-β...
