Incidence of a weak HL-A W27 antigen in a Czech family.
In two members of a Czech family a weak W 27 antigen was found. The lymphocytes of the two individuals showed an identical positive cytotoxic reaction only with some sera having anti-W 27 specificity; anti-W 27 of both the said sera and those showing negative cytotoxic test was absorbed by the lymphocytes. The thrombocyte absorption capacity was substantially poorer.
