Q97112 HLA Testing (CIRS)

Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) profiles indicate antigen presentation capacity.

Antigen presentation then determines the likely immune response to a foreign protein. This HLA test considers the HLA profile required for consideration of CIRS as per the work of Dr Shoemaker and the Centre for Biotoxin Related Illness.
