Abstract excerpt
Recent studies suggest that the immunogenicity of an human leukocyte antigen (HLA) incompatibility should be considered in the context of the HLA phenotype of the recipient. The HLA-DR phenotype of the responder is thought to be predictive for the strength of the alloimmune response. In order to analyze the humoral response against HLA class I antigens in the context of the HLA-DR phenotype of the responder, we...
