Establishment of in vitro cellular model predicting histocompatibility in allograft

J Tongji Med Univ. 2001;21(4):277-9. doi: 10.1007/BF02886555.

Abstract

A novel in vitro cellular model producting recipient-donor histocompatibility in allograft was developed to select the donor validity. Fifteen couples of blood samples of donor and recipient in human BMT were examined using the model, and skin allograft in mice was performed to test the model. The results showed that the less the differences of histocompatibility evaluated by the model were, the later GVHR in human BMT occurred and the longer the survival time of skin allografts in mice. It was suggested that the model could be used to predict correctly histocompatibility between donor and recipient.
