Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The human platelet antigen (HPA) 1 through 5 and the human neutrophil antigen (HNA-1) systems are relevant to immune-related thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. The alloantigen distribution profiles in the population will aid in estimating the risk of alloimmunization. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Genotyping of the genes that control the expression of the HPA-1 through -5 and HNA-1 systems in Taiwanese (n...
