Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Antibodies against human neutrophil antigen (HNA)-3a are associated with severe cases of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). The HNA-3 system is located on choline transporter-like 2 (CTL-2) protein. CTL-2 is encoded by the gene SLC44A2 and a single-nucleotide polymorphism c.461G>A results in two antigens: HNA-3a and HNA-3b. Three HNA-3 genotypes/ phenotypes exist: HNA-3aa, HNA-3bb, and...
