Abstract excerpt
Although the determination of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody specificity has traditionally been directed toward HLA antigens, there is now increasing attention to structurally defined HLA epitopes. An understanding of the HLA epitope repertoire is important to acceptable mismatching for sensitized patients and to a new epitope-based matching algorithm aimed to reduce antibody-mediated rejection. There are...
