ABO blood group association and COVID-19. COVID-19 susceptibility and severity: a review

Sapha Shibeeb et al.

Summary: The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic since the end of 2019 has led to investigations on the potential influence of the ABO blood group system on susceptibility and disease progression. Different blood groups may have varying risks and outcomes when infected with SARS-CoV-2.

ABO blood group is involved in the quality of the specific immune response anti-SARS-CoV-2

Sergio Gil-Manso et al.

Summary: This study collected blood samples from 35 recovered individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 and found that after 10 months, specific CD4+ T-cell responses against M-protein remained while responses against S- or N-proteins diminished over time. Additionally, individuals with O-group blood type had slower viral clearance and loss of cellular immune responses compared to non O-group individuals.

Summary: The study indicated that individuals with blood group A and B have a significantly higher risk of COVID-19, while individuals with blood group O are less prone to develop the disease. Additionally, blood group A is associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 mortality.

Sarah A. Al-Youha et al.

Summary: The study found a potential link between ABO blood group and susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection, with individuals of blood group A having higher odds of developing pneumonia. The blood group distribution of COVID-19 patients differed from the general population.

The effect of ABO blood group and antibody class on the risk of COVID-19 infection and severity of clinical outcomes

Marwa Ali Almadhi et al.

Summary: This study found a higher risk of COVID-19 infection associated with blood type B and a lower risk with blood type AB. However, there was no association between blood type or antibodies and the risk of severe infection, indicating that blood type may not be an ideal biomarker for predicting COVID-19 infection risk.

Why blood group A individuals are at risk whereas blood group O individuals are protected from SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection: A hypothesis regarding how the virus invades the human body via ABO(H) blood group-determining carbohydrates

Peter Arend

Summary: The virus may exploit the host's N-acetyl-D-galactosamine metabolism and ABO blood group-specific structures to bind to cell surfaces, while differences in blood group antigen activities and glycosylation adaptations can influence viral infection patterns.
