The new kidney allocation system in the United States has improved deceased donor transplant rates among candidates with high calculated panel reactive antibodies (CPRAs). Probability analysis predicts a very low transplant rate as the CPRA approaches 100%. This study sought to determine if the rate of deceased donor kidney transplant based on the actual CPRA in the cohort of 100% qualifying candidates...
HLA genotyping by next‐generation sequencing is now widely performed. We aimed at evaluating the performance of the One Lambda AllType kit using Thermo Fisher Scientific reagents on the Ion S5 XL platform. Reads were analyzed using the TypeStream Visual software. We performed 15 runs between April and September 2018 to type DNA at the HLA‐A/B/C/DRB1/3/4/5/DQA1/DQB1/DPA1/DPB1 loci from 340 samples...
The PTPN22 gene encodes the lymphoid protein tyrosine phosphatase involved in regulation the immune response. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs1217388, rs1310182, rs2476601, and rs2488457 are located within the PTPN22 gene. We investigated whether these SNPs in liver transplant donors are associated with acute cellular rejection in the recipients. The SNPs were analyzed in donors (n =...
Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world in area and the fifth most populous. The Brazilian voluntary Bone Marrow Donor Registry is the third largest in terms of number of donors in the world, being a valuable source of HLA genetics to characterize the donor population of Brazil as well. The genetic background of the Brazilian population is quite heterogeneous, resulting from 5 centuries of...
