The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of sHLA in a solid-phase EIA as a rapid and sensitive way to identify potential IgG HLA class-I-typing reagents. To evaluate the efficacy of the sHLA EIA, we used the assay to screen 259 HLA-A, -B, and -C antisera that our laboratory had procured using the standard NIH LCA. A positive result obtained by the sHLA EIA, which was defined as an EIA ratio of 3 SD above the mean of 91 anti-HLA-negative sera, revealed that 91% (79 of 87) of the A-locus-typing reagents were positive, 96% (150 of 156) of the B-locus antisera were positive, and only 75% (12 of 16) of the C-locus reagents were positive. The typing reagents that were negative by EIA (n = 18) fell into two categories. First, 38% (7 of 18) were negative by sHLA EIA, as they were IgM-typing reagents (NIH LCA reactivity ameliorated by DTT). The second group of the 11 remaining typing reagents had a mean EIA ratio of 1.0 +/- 0.246 (mean +/- 1 SD), which was significantly (P < 0.001) higher than the mean of the 91 negative controls that were used to establish the negative cutoff. The overall sensitivity of the sHLA EIA to detect HLA class-I-directed IgG was 97.2%.

D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D006650 Histocompatibility Testing Identification of the major histocompatibility antigens of transplant DONORS and potential recipients, usually by serological tests. Donor and recipient pairs should be of identical ABO blood group, and in addition should be matched as closely as possible for HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in order to minimize the likelihood of allograft rejection.

D015395 Histocompatibility Antigens Class I Membrane glycoproteins consisting of an alpha subunit and a BETA 2-MICROGLOBULIN beta subunit. In humans, highly polymorphic genes on CHROMOSOME 6 encode the alpha subunits of class I antigens and play an important role in determining the serological specificity of the surface antigen. Class I antigens are found on most nucleated cells and are generally detected by their reactivity with alloantisera. These antigens are recognized during GRAFT REJECTION and restrict cell-mediated lysis of virus-infected cells.
