Association of Disparities in Known Minor Histocompatibility Antigens with Relapse-Free Survival and Graft-Versus-Host-Disease Upon Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation,
Abstract:4136
Purpose:
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can induce remission in patients with hematological malignancies due to graft-versus-tumor (GVT) responses. This, however, is often accompanied by graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Both the GVT effect and GVHD are mediated by minor histocompatibility antigen (MiHA)-specific T cells recognizing peptide products from polymorphic genes that differ between recipient and donor. Here, we evaluated whethe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
