mixed lymphocyte reaction
- mixed lymphocyte reaction
-
Reaction of
mitogenesis produced in T-lymphocytes when
allogeneic (ie. mixed) lymphocytes are brought together, provided they are mismatched in
histocompatibility loci. Once used as
a test for possible graft compatibility in human grafting. Now known that
a negative reaction is
a poor predictor of graft acceptance.
