The HLA System in Chronic Myelogeneous Leukaemia (CML): A Study in the Sicilian Population.
Abstract
The role of the effect of the major histocompatibility complex genes in relation to some virus -induced lymphoid tumours in mice is well established 1 . Nevertheless the search for an analogous situation in man has been inconclusive- We report data obtained from Sicilian families with patients affected by CML in which HLA-A, B, C, DR, DO typing was performed in search for an HLA identical bone marrow transplant donor.
