Typing for human alloantigens with the primed lymphocyte typing (PLT) technique with notes on the interpretation of PLT data.
A typing system for HLA-D/DR-associated PLT-defined determinants, which have been called "DP" antigens, is reported. Some of the results concerning a data interpretation system, the reproducibility of PLT results, and the correlations between the results of HLA-D, -DR, and DP typing are presented. Also, a "new" human alloantigen, EP1, not belonging to the series of DP antigens, is defined with PLT.
