Aswin K Mohan: HLA Beyond Histocompatibility – Redefining Immune Recognition in Modern Medicine
Aswin K Mohan, Medicine Specialist at AIIMS Bibinagar, shared a post on LinkedIn about the recent article she and her colleagues co-authored,published in Frontiers in Immunology adding:
“We often think of HLA as a matching problem.
But HLA is much more than matching.
It is fundamentally a system of immune recognition – influencing how the immune system sees peptides, responds to transfused cells, recognises transplanted organs, reacts to drugs, controls infections, and even identifies cancer cells.
And that broader perspective matters.
I’m delighted to share our new review, ‘Beyond Histocompatibility: Human Leukocyte Antigen as a Cross-Disciplinary Platform for Immune Recognition and Clinical Decision-Making,’ published in Frontiers in Immunology.
I’m grateful to Saikat Mandal, Joyisa Deb, Suhasini Sil, Manideepa Maji, Shirin Hasan, Fahad Hassan Ashraf and Arkadeep Dhali for bringing together perspectives from different disciplines and making this collaboration possible.
A special thank you to our reviewers and the Frontiers in Immunology editorial team for their thoughtful input throughout the process.
For me, this review was a reminder that HLA sits at a fascinating intersection of immunology, transfusion medicine, genetics and clinical decision-making.”
