Pre-transplantation HLA antibody testing is necessary to assess compatibility between donor and recipient pairs. Over the past decade, the virtual crossmatch (VXM) has replaced the physical crossmatch (PXM) as the main assessment of pre-transplant histocompatibility. At our center, most transplants have proceeded based solely on the VXM, followed by a retrospective PXM.

In this article, we comment on an article published in a recent issue of the . We specifically focus on the roles of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) in pediatric liver transplantation (LT), as well as the relationship between immune rejection after LT and DSA. Currently, LT remains the standard of care for pediatric patients with end-stage liver disease or severe acute liver failure.

Introduction: HLA matching is critical for successful kidney transplantation. This study aimed to investigate the impact of eplet mismatches and Predicted Indirectly Recognizable HLA Epitopes (PIRCHE-II) scores on the development of de novo donor-specific antibodies (dnDSA) and graft survival in a Tunisian cohort, characterized by a high prevalence of living donors and significant genetic diversity in HLA profiles.
Methods: This retrospective study included 112 adult kidney transplant recipients who underwent transplantation between 2012 and 2018.

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatches in stem cell transplantation can be well-tolerated with the use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus-host-disease (GvHD) prophylaxis. Haploidentical (Haplo) and HLA-mismatched unrelated donors become acceptable donors. This review focuses on Haplo and unrelated donor selection in the context of PTCy-transplant for hematological malignancy, in comparison with conventional GvHD prophylaxis.
