Abstract excerpt
We have applied a double-determinant immune assay (DDIA) to measure soluble beta2-microglobulin (beta2-micro)-free HLA class I heavy chains in serum. The mean concentration of beta2-micro-free HLA class I heavy chains in serum from 120 healthy subjects was 0.21+/-0.24 microg/ml. The individual serum levels of beta2-micro-free HLA class I heavy chains had a wide distribution, did not seem to be related with HLA...
