1 Completing the CIBMTR Confirmation of HLA Typing Form (Form 2005) Stephen Spellman Research Manager NMDP Scientific Services Maria Brown Scientific Services Specialist Data Management Conference

2 Introduction to Form 2005 Basic Biology of HLA Overview of HLA nomenclature Laboratory report interpretation and data transcription 2

3 Introduction The CIBMTR product information is collected on three separate forms: The IDM form (Form 2004) The Confirmation of HLA Typing form (Form 2005) Infusion form (Form 2006) HLA form modeled on NMDP Form 22/117 3

4 Confirmation of HLA Typing Form The Confirmation of HLA Typing form is completed for: Non-NMDP allogeneic or syngeneic donors Non-NMDP recipients Non-NMDP cord blood units Complete a separate copy of this form for each donor, recipient, or cord blood unit Not required on NMDP-facilitated transplants! 4

5 FormsNet 2.0 All data fields identical to the paper form 5

6 Basic Biology of HLA 6

7 What is HLA? Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) First discovered through antigenic differences on white blood cells Highest expressed antigens are the class I and class II HLA molecules (0.5-1 million per cell) 7

8 HLA and the MHC HLA is part of a larger system know as the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) MHC is a set of closely linked genes inherited as a unit (complex) MHC was initially recognized by its major influence on transplant rejection 8

9 Histocompatibility Molecules MHC is divided into two main regions: HLA class I HLA class II Encoded by genes on chromosome 6 9

10 10

11 HLA Inheritance HLA genes on the same haplotype are inherited together, along with the rest of the MHC Complex HLA Class II HLA Class I C DRB1 DQB1 B C A Maternal Copy C DRB1 DQB1 B C A Paternal Copy 11

12 HLA Inheritance a c 25% FATHER MOTHER a b c d A B DR O F F S P R I N G a d b c b d 25% 25% 25% b/a d Recombinant Sibling (1%) 12

13 HLA Diversity Highest degree of polymorphism in human genome The diversity makes possible thousands of different combinations 13

14 HLA Typing Methods Serology Identifies HLA molecules on the cell surface using antigen specific anti-sera DNA Protein Antigen DNA Identifies HLA molecules by defining the DNA code in the cell nucleus 14

15 HLA Nomenclature DNA Serology DNA Serology A*0201 A2 A*0202 A2 A*0203 A2 A*0204 A2 A*0205 A2.. A*0273 A2 15

16 Number of Antigens/Alleles 16

17 Why So Diverse? Present many different types of peptides Protection from a myriad of pathogens 17

18 The Function of HLA Molecules Present antigen (peptides) to T-lymphocytes Facilitate immune surveillance Detection of: Viral or bacterial infected cells Mutated genes or proteins 18

19 Class I HLA Molecules Co-dominantly expressed on the surface of almost all nucleated cells (except RBCs and CNS) Present intracellular peptides to CD8 + T cells Individuals express up to 6 different class I molecules; two HLA-A, two HLA-B and two HLA-C 19

20

21 Class II HLA Molecules Expressed on the surface of Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) B lymphocytes, dendritic cells and thymic epithelial cells Class II HLA-DRB1/3/4/5, DQA1, DQB1, DPA1, DPB1 Present extracellular (and intracellular) peptides to CD4+ T cells Consist of a and b chains 21

26 HLA and Transplantation Stem cell transplantation is transplanting of the immune system Graft rejection occurs when the residual host immune system attacks the transplanted immune system Graft vs. Host Disease (GvHD) occurs when the new immune system begins to attack the body of the recipient 26

27 HLA Basic Biology - Summary HLA genes part of MHC complex Inherited as maternal and paternal haplotypes HLA genes are the most polymorphic in the human genome Facilitate immune surveillance Present self and non-self peptides (viral, bacterial, mutated proteins, etc ) to circulating T cells 27

28 Overview of HLA Nomenclature 28

29 Examples of Serological Typing Nomenclature A10 B15 DR4 A2 B35 DR15 gene order of antigen discovery 29

30 Examples of DNA Typing Nomenclature A*2501 B*1503 DRB1*0402 gene A*0210 B*3502 DRB1*1504 * DNA methodology order of allele discovery allele group structure serologic 30

31 DNA Nomenclature: Silent Substitutions Example: DRB1*1502 DRB1* DRB1* DRB1* DRB1* The fifth & sixth digits indicate a difference in DNA structure, but the HLA antigens specified do not differ 31

32 DNA Nomenclature Oddities A* = Silent mutation A*2409N = (Null) No antigen expressed A*2402L = Low antigen expression B*4402S = HLA protein is secreted B*3565Q = Antigen level is questionable Antigen 32
