The uncommon C77G polymorphism of the Protein-Tyrosine Phosphatase (PTPRC) gene (PTPRC; previously termed CD45) could confer an increased risk of immunopathology. This study compared the outcome of children following human leucocyte antigen-matched unrelated haematopoïetic-stem cell transplantations (HSCT) from donors carrying (C77G cases: n = 8) or not (controls: n = 36) the PTPRC C77G polymorphism.
