The contribution of a separate indigenous ethnic group of Siberia to the genetic diversity of potential hematopoietic stem cell donors pool of the registry of Russian research Institute of Hematology and Transfusiology of the Federal medico-biological Agency
The genetic diversity of hematopoietic stem cell donors pool is a prerequisite for the registry efficiency. Currently the representatives of 49 nationalities are included in the registry of the Russian research Institute of Hematology and Transfusiology. The article is devoted to the analysis of immunogenetic characteristics of stem cells donors, self-identified as Buryats. The differences of the immunogenetic profiles of Buryats and donors from St. Petersburg prevailing in the registry of the Russian research Institute of Hematology and Transfusiology are demonstrated.
