Abstract excerpt
Minor Histocompatibility (mH) antigens are polymorphic endogenously synthesized products that can be recognized by alloreactive T cells in the context of major histocompatibility complex molecules. In transplant situations where tissue donor and recipient are matched for HLA, mH antigens may trigger strong cellular immune responses. To gain insight into the polymorphism of mH antigens we studied their frequencies...
