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

Acta 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

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

Revista 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

Female rose bitterling prefer MHC-dissimilar males : experimental evidence [PDF]

, 2012
The role of genetic benefits in female mate choice remains a controversial aspect of sexual selection theory. In contrast to “good allele” models of sexual selection, “compatible allele” models of mate choice predict that females prefer mates with ...

Downregulation of major histocompatibility complex class I in bovine papillomas [PDF]

, 2004
Bovine papillomavirus (BPV) induces papillomas in cattle; in the great majority of cases, these regress due to the host immune response, but they can persist and progress to malignancy.

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

Indian 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.
