Successful Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation in a Highly Sensitized Patient after Reclassification of Unacceptable Antigens Based on HLA Epitope Analysis

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Nefrologia e Hipertensão, 2022
For patients with end stage renal disease, kidney transplant offers significant survival and quality-of-life advantages compared with dialysis. But for patients seeking transplant who are highly sensitized, waiting times have traditionally been long and

Major Histocompatibility Complex Binding, Eluted Ligands, and Immunogenicity: Benchmark Testing and Predictions

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Antidrug antibody (ADA) responses impact drug safety, potency, and efficacy. It is generally assumed that ADA responses are associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II-restricted CD4+ T-cell reactivity.

Discrepancies in HLA typing: use of different methods to confirm doubtful or inconclusive results

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Health Sciences, 2014
http://dx.doi.org/10.4025/actascihealthsci.v36i1.15575 The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a set of genes found on the short arm of chromosome 6. MHC molecules in human beings are known as human leukocyte antigens (HLA). HLA polymorphism can be

Quality Control in Histocompatibility Testing: Current Standards, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesIndian Journal of Transplantation
Histocompatibility testing is pivotal to the transplantation process since it helps determine immune compatibility between donors and recipients. This compatibility reduces the risk of rejection and improves transplant outcomes.
