Overview on HLA and DNA typing methods
The term HLA refers to the Human Leukocyte Antigen System, which is controlled by genes on the short arm of chromosome six. The HLA loci are part of the genetic region known as the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). The MHC has genes (including HLA) that form part of the normal function of the immune response. The essential role of the HLA antigens lies in the control of self-recognition a...
متن کاملA glow of HLA typing in organ transplantation
The transplant of organs and tissues is one of the greatest curative achievements of this century. In organ transplantation, the adaptive immunity is considered the main response exerted to the transplanted tissue, since the main goal of the immune response is the MHC (major histocompatibility complex) molecules expressed on the surface of donor cells. Cell surface molecules that induce an anti...
متن کاملThe Advanced HLA Typing Strategies for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
The occurrence of graft rejection and/or graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is largely depended on whether the re‐ cipient and the donor have matched HLA types. Under normal circumstances, the individu‐ al with completely matched HLA antigens can be the donor. However, due to the high level of HLA polymorphism, the major obstacl...
متن کاملHLA Typing – A Comparison of Serology and DNA Techniques
DNA based HLA typing is fast replacing conventional Microlymphocytotoxicity based method, which has been regarded as the gold standard. Many laboratories in Mumbai have already switched over to molecular methods, as the results are far superior. This study was undertaken to compare the results of generic molecular typing by sequence specific primers (SSP) with that by serology in our laboratory...
