Introduction: We investigated the potential role of HLA molecular mismatches (MM) in achieving stable chimerism, allowing for donor-specific tolerance in patients undergoing combined living donor kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
Methods: All patients with available DNA samples (N=32) who participated in a phase 2 clinical trial (NCT00498160) where they received an HLA mismatched co-transplantation of living donor kidney and facilitating cell-enriched HSCT were included in this study. High-resolution HLA genotyping data were used to calculate HLA amino acid mismatches (AAMM), Eplet MM, three-dimensional electrostatic mismatch scores (EMS-3D), PIRCHE scores, HLA-DPB1 T-cell epitope group MM, HLA-B leader sequence MM, and KIR ligands MM between the donor and recipient in both directions.
Background And Objectives: This study describes the use of the Epvix platform for virtual cross-matching (VC) of human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-compatible platelets for patients with immune platelet refractoriness, and demonstrates effectiveness of the selected platelets.
Materials And Methods: A prospective cohort of haematological patients was evaluated from 2018 to 2022. HLA-typed donor bank profile was previously uploaded to the Epvix platform.

Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a key factor affecting the long-term survival of renal allografts. Donor-specific antibody (DSA) is the etiology of AMR. So it is very important to accurately detect DSA.

Background: The assessment of class II eplet mismatch load is useful to determine the risk of chronic rejection in solid organ transplantation. However, high-resolution (2-field) HLA typing is mandatory to accurately define eplet mismatches. The imputation of the most frequent allele has been used in retrospective studies.
