sharon santiago Thank you for the compliment! Glad it was helpful!
i'm struggling in anatomy rn but this is a well explained videoo
Thank you! I hope you find my other videos helpful as well! Anatomy is a tough subject!
If antigens are foreign substances then why are the proteins on red blood cells that are responsible for blood type identification called antigens when they're something inherent
of the person?
That's a GREAT question! They are called antigens, because even though they have no reaction to individual whose blood is, they can have a reaction in someone else. For example, if you give a person with blood type A, B blood, the blood type A person will react to those B antigens.
@@DrVanessa so why is a person born with a foreign substance (antigen)? What is this specific antigen that is affecting these particular species of neanderthals?
@@DrVanessa so why is a person born with a foreign substance (antigen)? What is this specific antigen that is affecting these particular species of neanderthals?
@@carlorealist6907 a person isn’t born with a foreign antigen. Foreign antigens are those things that the body does not recognize as it’s own proteins (this is a process the immune system goes through as it develops ). Therefore, foreign antigens come from outside the body.
@@carlorealist6907 if you are referring to red blood cell antigens, they are not foreign to the individual themselves, but only to individuals who don’t have them.
Very helpful
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful!
Well explained..got it..thankew dr.
Thank you! I am glad it helped you to understand!
Great t❤️❤️eaching

@@DrVanessa very very helpful in this Covid season, be blessed Dr.
@@kmusoniesther8622 thank you! You as well!
thank u maam
please make a video on differenet blood group and donor ,receiver blood group
I have one’. You can find it here: czcams.com/video/p6xoRJ3rWpQ/video.html. Thank you!
Thank you ma'am
Maybe it would be good to mention that some blood groups (all accept O) have antigens
That's so true! There are many cells including red blood cells that have antigens on their surface. This was a basic video describing the antigen/antibody relationship. However, I describe blood groups in detail in this video (including antigens on their cell surface). This was a precursor to that video. czcams.com/video/p6xoRJ3rWpQ/video.html
Are this antigens different from the antigens present in human RBC?
Antigens are things that the body recognizes as foreign. We usually think of them as pathogens, viruses, bacteria, etc. that come into the body, that is not a self protein. However, as you pointed out, antigens are present on RBCs. This can make it confusing. This is because the body CAN recognize them as foreign, and have antibodies against them. The difference is, the person who actually has the antigen on their RBC, it is really not an antigen to them because it will be a self protein, but can be an antigen to someone else. This was all found and named before our understanding of the immune system and antibodies and antigens. But, because some people can recognize those cell surface markers as foreign, they have been called antigens. Check out the video I link here, that will show you more. Hopefully, that will help clear up the confusion. And, reach out if you have any more questions! czcams.com/video/p6xoRJ3rWpQ/video.html
Thank u! it was a nice presentation. ❣
Actually I have a doubt ..it said that antigen is a foreign substance which means they are not supposed to be in the body but WHY RBC has antigen???
That's mean RBCs are not supposed to be in our body😮???
Good question! Antigens are foreign to the body and elicit and immune response. RBC antigens are confusing because obviously some people have some of them or none, depending on blood type. A RBC antigen is not foreign to the person who has it, but is foreign to the person who doesn’t. Meaning, if someone is given the wrong blood type, an immune response will happen and cause agglutination. This is not good. I have another video on ABO blood typing. Check it out because I go through it in more detail and I think it may help you to make more sense of it.
@@DrVanessa oh ok thank you so much
I searched up on Google my blood type and it says I have no antigens is that good or bad?
So you have type O. This is not a good or bad thing, just what makes it blood type what it is and let’s you know who can receive blood from or give blood to.
@@DrVanessa At what age am I able to donate blood?
@@Thebirdemoji depends where you are. In US, I believe you can be 16 with parental consent. Some places you need to be older.
why opposite antibodies are present in blood cells?
That is just a natural phenomenon. Normally, our bodies have to make antibodies towards antigens that enter our body. However, when pertaining to blood types, our bodies naturally make these opposite antibodies from the beginning. For example, if you are Type A blood you make anti-type B antibodies from the beginning. This is just naturally occurring. It is also why it is very dangerous to receive the wrong type of blood as the reaction will be immediate.
I’ve been trying to find out how antigens are weakened and deactivated, but I haven’t found anything. I know this video doesn’t relate to my question, however, I thought you may be able to help me.
I’m unsure if your question. Do you mean by the antibodies? When an antibody binds to an antigen, it neutralizes it, so it can no longer do the job it was supposed to. Does that help? If not, please try to reword your question. The antigen by itself does not get weakened or deactivated unless the immune system interferes.
Sorry, I meant as in when vaccines are developed, the antigens put in are weakened or inactivated. But how is this done?
@@simranbuttar3618 Not all vaccines use antigens directly. It really depends on the vaccine. Check out this video I made on vaccines, it explains what types of vaccines are made, even the new mRNA type. If you're still confused, let me know and I'll try to clear it up for you. czcams.com/video/48nC5IsrTT0/video.html
@@DrVanessa thank you!
Dear you are really good at explaining but your voice is too low. Am struggling to hear please adjust
I am sorry you are having trouble. Perhaps it is your speakers? On my computer when I put up the volume, I can hear it very loud.
nyc video there
Thank you so much 😀
does is it mean if you are tested positive for the antigen then you will be tested positive for antibody? anyone help ?
Maybe not. Testing positive for the antigen means you have the virus or bacteria testing for. Eventually, yes, you will test positive for antibodies, but your body needs time to make them which takes weeks. Usually at that point when antibodies are actually made, you won’t test positive for antigen, but it is possible.
@@DrVanessa thank you ! What’s the difference between IGt and IgM antivirus
Bodies*
@@kevinwu3110 IgM antibodies are made first by activated B cells, then there is a class switch to IgG. IgG is the most common and what confers immunity. IgG is a monomer while IgM is a pentamer.
@@DrVanessa thank you soooo much !!!!
I love you
YOU ARE GOD MA'AM
QUANTUM VICKY not quite! But I appreciate the compliment.
Your technic is very good .....But,Can you explain in hindi .....plz
Hi! I worked on some settings, if you add CC (closed captions), then you should be able to auto generate them into Hindi. It seems to only work on my laptop, not the phone settings. If you have a computer, see if that may work for you! I’d love to hear feedback. Thank you!
I also think I changed it for mobile too!! Pleas let me know if it works. Thank you!
@@DrVanessa thanks mam ! I understand ..................
@@mirzaking8575 So it works?? YAY!
I didn't find the following videos
I’m not sure what you’re asking. In the description there’s a link for a video on B cells where you can find out more about how antibodies are made.
@@DrVanessa thank you!
Antibodies can it affected by masturbution?
No
ok wear your mask ok😷
