Detection of cellular microchimerism of male or female origin in systemic sclerosis patients by polymerase chain reaction analysis of HLA-Cw antigens.

Arthritis and rheumatism - 1 May 2000

Artlett C M, Cox L A, Jimenez S A

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Systemic sclerosis (SSc; scleroderma), a disease of unknown origin, displays many similarities to chronic graft-versus-host disease. It occurs most frequently in women after the childbearing years. In recent studies, the presence of Y-chromosome DNA derived from male fetuses was detected, but DNA from female fetuses could not be investigated in those studies. The present study was undertaken to...
