- Condition in which the cells of one tissue can survive in the presence of cells of another tissue; "a successful graft or transplant requires a high degree of histocompatibility"
- Histocompatibility is the property of having the same, or mostly the same, alleles of a set of genes called the major histocompatibility complex. These genes are expressed in most tissues as antigens, to which the immune system makes antibodies. ...
- (Histocompatible) The immunological characteristic of cells or tissue that causes them to be tolerated by another cell or tissue; that allows some tissues to be grafted effectively to others.
- (Histocompatible) Refers to tissue or organ transplantation without rejection from the recipient immune system. Histocompatibility usually occurs with transplantation between identical twins.
- (Histocompatible) A tissue or organ from a donor (the person giving the organ or tissue) that will not be rejected by the recipient (the patient in whom the tissue or organ is transplanted). ...
- Literally, the ability of tissues to get along; in immunology, it means identity in all transplantation antigens. These antigens, in turn, are collectively referred to as histocompatibility antigens.
- The examination of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) in a patient, often referred to as "tissue typing" or "genetic matching." Tissue typing is routinely performed for all donors and recipients in kidney and pancreas transplantation to help match the donor with the most suitable recipients. ...
- The degree of genetic matching between tissues or cells from a donor and a transplant recipient. The most important genes for tissue matching are HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DR. ...
- The degree to which tissue from one organism will be tolerated by the immune system of another organism.
