Abstract excerpt
The human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class II compatibility of bone marrow donor and recipient is an essential prerequisite for the prevention of severe graft versus host disease and therefore for the successful outcome of bone marrow transplantation. In this study an efficient protocol was develope...
