Abstract excerpt
Graft-versus-host reactions are mediated by subpopulations of donor T cells and can be attributed to host specific minor histocompatibility (mH) antigens. We isolated strong anti-host mH antigen proliferative T cell lines, LG2, PN2, and LH3, from three patients suffering from acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). To study the role of the different major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules in the...
