Discovery and Differential Processing of HLA Class II-Restricted Minor Histocompatibility Antigen LB-PIP4K2A-1S and Its Allelic Variant by Asparagine Endopeptidase [PDF]
Minor histocompatibility antigens are the main targets of donor-derived T-cells after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Identification of these antigens and understanding their biology are a key requisite for more insight into how graft vs.

Disease recurrence and rejection following liver transplantation for autoimmune chronic active liver disease [PDF]
Autoimmune chronic active liver disease (ACALD), a major indication for liver transplantation, is associated strongly with antigenic determinants HLA-B8 and DR3.

Donor-recipient (D-R) mismatches outside of human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) contribute to kidney allograft loss, but the mechanisms remain unclear, specifically for intronic mismatches. We quantified non-HLA mismatches at variant-, gene-, and genome-wide

HLA-D Region Antigen Expression by Human Epidermal Langerhans Cells
We have systematically examined HLA-D region antigen expression by normal human epidermal Langerhans cells with an improved double label indirect immunofluorescence technique in order to better understand the immunologic potential of this human interstitial dendritic cell type.

Risk of Transfusion Complication: A Systematic Review of Iranian Literature [PDF]
Background and aims: Injecting healthy blood on time can save patients’ lives; on the other hand, delaying the start of transfusion or injecting unhealthy and wrong blood can cause fatal risks.

Allelic variation in HLA-B and HLA-C sequences and the evolution of the HLA-B alleles [PDF]
Several new HLA-B (B8, B51, Bw62)- and HLA-C (Cw6, Cw7)-specific genes were isolated either as genomic cosmid or cDNA clones to study the diversity of HLA antigens.

Wolbachia spp. are intracellular, maternally inherited bacteria that infect a wide range of arthropods. These bacteria influence reproductive traits in their hosts and are used in mosquito-borne virus control programmes.

Cancer vaccines: uses of HLA transgenic mice compared to genetically modified mice [PDF]
Many tumor antigens have been identified that can be targeted by the immune system. Animal models that have been genetically modified to express human HLA molecules instead of their own MHC antigens have shown to be valuable in the discovery of peptides ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

The Humoral Theory of Transplantation: Epitope Analysis and the Pathogenicity of HLA Antibodies. [PDF]
Central to the humoral theory of transplantation is production of antibodies by the recipient against mismatched HLA antigens in the donor organ. Not all mismatches result in antibody production, however, and not all antibodies are pathogenic.
