Abstract excerpt
Successful transplantation of tissue during solid organ and bone marrow transplantation relies on accurate determination of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) phenotype of the potential donor(s) and recipient. Matching donor with recipient for a kidney transplant generally means finding a six-antigen match by looking at each of two alleles at HLA-A, -B, and -DR loci. For bone marrow transplantation the HLA-C and...
