KIR in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Need for a Unified Paradigm for Donor Selection. [PDF]
Front Immunol, 2022 Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) is a lifesaving therapy for hematological malignancies. For years, a fully matched HLA donor was a requisite for the procedure.

Donor specific HLA antibody in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Implications for donor selection. [PDF]
Front Immunol, 2022 Advances in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) have led to changes in the approach to donor selection. Many of these new approaches result in greater HLA loci mismatching, either through the selection of haploidentical donors or permissive HLA ...
