Abstract excerpt
HLA-DP is a classic transplantation antigen that mediates alloreactivity through T-cell epitope (TCE) diversity and expression levels. A current challenge is to integrate these functional features into the prospective selection of unrelated donor candidates for transplantation. Genetically, HLA-DPB1 exon 2 defines the permissive and nonpermissive TCE groups, and exons 2 and 3 (in linkage with rs9277534) indicate...
