Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the NOD2/CARD15 gene have been associated with the incidence and the severity of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). We hypothesized that the clinical effect of SNP in NOD2/CARD15 might be different in patients submitted to T-cell-depleted allogeneic SCT, in which donor T cells, the...
