Linkage group HL-A-MLC-BF (properdin factor B). The site of the Bf locus at the immunogenetic linkage group on chromosome 6.

Genetic linkage between the HL-A and Bf loci could be confirmed in 43 families with 168 offspring. In 4 families, 5 recombinants out of 82 informative meiotic divisions were observed (r = 6.1%). The localisation of the Bf marker system was studied in 3 families with crossovers between HL-A and MLC. From these data the following map order of human chromosome 6 can be proposed: HL-A (1st locus) -- HL-A (2nd locus)--MLC-Bf---PGM(3). The fact that important components of the classical and alternate pathway of complement activation are governed by genes closely linked with HL-A and MLC loci leads to the proposition to include the Bf system into the Major Histocompatibility Complex in man.

Bone marrow transplantation in children with aplastic anemia and acute lymphatic leukemia.

A boy with severe Aplastic Anemia (AA) and a girl with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in relapse have been grafted with marrow from HL-A identical, mixed leukocyte culture (MLC) negative siblings after appropriate immunosuppressive and antileukemic therapy. Both of them are well 7 and 2 months after transplantation respectively. Bone marrow transplantation should be considered in children with AA and ALL in relapse, if HL-A identical, MLC negative siblings are available.
