Background: Four amino acids are involved in epitope formation of human neutrophil antigens (HNA)‐1 alleles, located at positions 36, 65, 78, and 82. HNA‐1a and HNA‐1b alloantibody epitopes were recently characterized. The HNA‐1b allele also carries the HNA‐1d epitope p.78A&p.82N. The current study aimed to identify compound antibody specificities in HNA‐1b alloantisera, especially the presence of anti‐HNA‐1d. Study Design and Methods: For investigation of binding epitopes for HNA‐1b alloantibodies, cells stably expressing different HNA‐1 alleles were generated and tested against previously well‐characterized HNA‐1b antisera (n = 11) in an antigen capture assay. Sera with p.82N specificity or p.36S and p.82N specificity were additionally analyzed using adsorption and elution methods. Results: Three amino acids, p.36S, p.78A, and p.82N, are involved in epitope formation of HNA‐1b. The following specificities were identified in 11 HNA‐1b alloantisera: p.36S (6/11), p.82N (9/11), and p.78A&p.82N (8/11), of which p.36S was identified as a sole entity in 2/11, whereas 9/11 antisera contained a polyspecific mixture of anti‐p.36S, p.82N (1/11), and anti‐p.78A&p.82N in combination with anti p.82N (5/11) or compound specificities of anti‐p.36S, p.82N, and p.78A&p82N (3/11). In seven of eight antisera with p.82N specificity, anti‐p.78A&p.82N was detected. Discussion: Analysis of HNA‐1b antisera indicates compound specificities for HNA‐1b alloantibodies with a high variation between HNA‐1b immunized individuals. Amino acids p.36S, p.82N, and p.78A&p.82N are necessary for HNA‐1b epitope formation. The HNA‐1d epitope is recognized by 73% (8/11) of HNA‐1b immunized individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
