Journal ArticleDOI
Microchimerism and HLA-compatible relationships of pregnancy in scleroderma
J. Lee Nelson,J. Lee Nelson,Daniel E. Furst,Sean Maloney,Ted Gooley,Paul C. Evans,Anajane G. Smith,Michael A. Bean,Carole Ober,Diana W. Bianchi +9 more
TL;DR: The finding that HLA class II compatibility of a child was more common for scleroderma patients than for controls, supports the possibility that microchimerism may be involved in the pathogenesis of sclerodma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimizing Outcome After Unrelated Marrow Transplantation by Comprehensive Matching of HLA Class I and II Alleles in the Donor and Recipient
Effie W. Petersdorf,Ted Gooley,Claudio Anasetti,Paul J. Martin,Anajane G. Smith,Eric Mickelson,Ann E. Woolfrey,John A. Hansen +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that matching HLA class I and class II alleles of the donor and recipient can improve outcome after unrelated marrow transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microchimerism of maternal origin persists into adult life
Sean Maloney,Anajane G. Smith,Daniel E. Furst,David Myerson,Kate Rupert,Paul C. Evans,J. Lee Nelson +6 more
TL;DR: Sensitive human leukocyte antigen-specific PCR assays and targeted nonshared maternal HLA genes to test for persistent maternal microchimerism indicate that HLA-disparate maternal cells can persist in immunocompetent offspring well into adult life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal-fetal disparity in HLA class II alloantigens and the pregnancy-induced amelioration of rheumatoid arthritis
TL;DR: It is suggested that the maternal immune response to paternal HLA antigens may have a role in the pregnancy-induced remission of rheumatoid arthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Major-Histocompatibility-Complex Class I Alleles and Antigens in Hematopoietic-Cell Transplantation
Effie W. Petersdorf,John A. Hansen,Paul J. Martin,Ann E. Woolfrey,Mari Malkki,Ted Gooley,Barry E. Storer,Eric Mickelson,Anajane G. Smith,Claudio Anasetti +9 more
TL;DR: HLA class I antigen mismatches that are serologically detectable confer an enhanced risk of graft failure after hematopoietic-cell transplantation.
