Factors affecting antibody levels after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation.

abstract：:Purified recombinant human ferritin composed solely of H subunit was radiolabeled and incubated with proerythroleukemic K562 human cells. A specific binding was detected, and it could be displaced only by ferritins, natural or recombinant, containing large proportion of the H subunit. The specific ferritin H-chain bin...
