Abstract
TRANSPLANTATION of tissues between humans is usually accompanied by the appearance in the serum of recipients of cytotoxic antibodies which reflect differences at the HL-A genetic locus. Antigenic specificities which are determined by this locus are frequently characterized by means of soluble serological inhibitors, prepared either by autolytic or proteolytic digestion of cell membranes. (Correlation of HL-A specificities used by various groups of workers is given in ref. 1.)
