[Oxygen activation by lymphocytes during interaction of HLA antibodies with HLA antigens]

The method of luminol-dependent chemiluminescence was used to detect oxygen activation during interaction of HLA antibodies with HLA antigens expressed on lymphocyte surface. Introduction of specific anti-HLA serum into the lymphocyte suspension leads to a rapid decrease of intensity in chemiluminescence intensity follows. The maximum yield of induced chemiluminescence in case of using a specific antiserum is significantly lower than in the control. The method could be used for detection of HLA antigens on lymphocyte surface.
