Popis: The expression of HL-A, P and H (ABO) systems has been studied on man-mouse hybrid clones and their subclones. Using the microcomplement fixation technique, we detected antigens of the HL-A, P and H systems in some clones corresponding to the phenotype of the human cell donor. Absorption tests were used to provide the specificity of the alloantisera. We also found a positive correlation between the presence of HL-A and P1/P antigens in these clones, but no correlation was found between HL-A and Pk specificities and between HL-A and H specificities. It was thought that the positive correlation might be due to a syntheny between HL-A and P loci or to the presence of HL-A and P specificities on a unique molecule. Therefore, preliminary experiments were made using antibody-induced redistribution phenomena (capping) to study the relationships between P and HL-A antigens at the cell surface. They indicated that the two molecules are independent of one another.
