Methodological Study on the Establishment of HLA/HPA Gene Bank of Platelet Donors and Its Clinical Application

The current study aimed at establishing a large-scale platelet donor database with known HPA and HLA genotypes in Ningbo, to provide matched platelets for the clinic and prevent the occurrence of ineffective immune platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR). The platelet banks of clinical donor wtih HLA-A, HLA-B, HPA1, HPA2, HPA3, HPA4, HPA5, HPA6, HPA10, HPA15 and HPA21 genotyps were established. Meanwile, the platelet gene matching was performed on the donor. It was found that there were phenotype polymorphisms in 1000 donnors with HPA1, HPA2, HPA3, HPA4, HPA5, HPA6, HPA10, HPA15 and HPA21 genotyps, and allel polymorphism distribution in donnors with HPA1, HPA2, HPA3, HPA4, HPA5, HPA6, HPA15, HPA21 genotyps. The frequency of HPA10 was a gene, and not b gene, showing a single linear distribution. The HPA 2, HPA3, HPA15 system were the most polymorphic with three phenotypes: aa, ab, bb. In the HLA-A allele, the highest frequency is A*11:01 (24.25%). There were 13 alleles that were greater than 1%, such as A*24:02, A*02:01, A*33:03, and the accumulated frequency reached 96.20%. In the HLA-B allele, the highest gene frequency was B*40:01 (13.40%). There were 24 alleles that were greater than 1%, such as B*46: 01, B*58: 01, B*15: 01, and the accumulated frequency reached 91.60%. Platelet antibody cross matching was performed on 100 blood samples from patients with thrombocytopenia after multiple platelet transfusions. The number of consistent samples was 46 (46%). Twenty patients were transfused with platelet cross matching. Among them, 18 patients had obvious improvement in clinical symptoms and good hemostatic effect after transfusion, which was judged to be effective. Platelet donor HPA and HLA-A, B antigen genotyping database provided patients with individual appropriate platelets, and provided the effectiveness of immune platelet infusion ensuring effective platelet transfusion.
