Preferred Label : AHG-enhanced Complement-dependent Lymphocytotoxicity Assay;
NCIt definition : A form of complement-dependent lymphocytotoxicity assay with the addition of anti-human
globulin (AHG), which is a complement fixing antibody to human immunoglobulin. The
AHG binds to both complement proteins and alloantibodies bound to donor lymphocytes,
thereby increasing the antibody density and the likelihood of activating complement,
resulting in increased sensitivity of the assy.;
Alternative definition : CDISC: A form of complement-dependent lymphocytotoxicity assay with the addition of
anti-human globulin (AHG) which is a complement fixing antibody to human immunoglobulin.
AHG binds to both complement proteins and non-complement-fixing antibodies.;
