Access through your institution Buy or subscribe Patients with preformed Abs are at increased risk of rejection after solid organ transplantation;1 however, the function of Ab-mediated
rejection in hematopoietic SCT is still not completely understood. The use of sensitive solid-phase Ab detection assays, such as LABScreen (One Lambda, Canoga Park, CA, USA), which are based
on flow cytometry, has enhanced our ability to detect and identify donor-specific anti-HLA Abs (DSA). LABScreen Single Antigen (One Lambda) had single recombinant HLA class I and class II
Ag on each bead. This report describes a patient with anti-HLA Abs who achieved successful engraftment after HLA-mismatched cord blood transplantation (CBT) due to primary graft failure
after ‘mega-dose’ PBSC transplantation. Table 1 shows the anti-HLA Abs identified before treatment, and the HLA of the patient and the donors. We identify the epitopes with unique amino-acid
positions according to the epitope analysis that was reported by Maruya _et al._2 This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your
