Lymphocytes from 26 patients with primary gout were typed for eighteen antigens from A and B loci. An increased "relative risk" of the disease was established in patients carrying antigen HLA-B14, but the correlation is not sufficient for using HLA typing as a diagnostic tool in the gout. Nevertheless HLA-B14 seems to be one of the genetic factors which predispose to the appearance of the articular lesions.

Background: Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a promising non-invasive biomarker for detecting graft injury in solid organ transplant recipients. Elevated dd-cfDNA levels are strongly associated with rejection and graft injury, especially antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). While donor-specific antibodies (dnDSA) are crucial in ABMR, the relationship between dd-cfDNA levels and dnDSA features, such as DSA category, MFI and HLA target loci, remains unclear.
