Abstract excerpt
We explored whether matching of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotypes between the recipient and donor of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) predicted by C4 and MICA typing is associated with the incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD). DNA preparations collected from a total of 81 recipient and donor pairs were used for PCR-based C4 subtyping and/or MICA sequence-based typing....
