Discrepancy according to the risk of aGVHD development: D1, AA-AG and AA-GG recipient-donor pairs; D2, AG-AG, AG-AA, AG-GG, and AA-AA recipient-donor pairs; and D3, GG-GG, GG-AA, and GG-AG recipient-donor pairs. Three newly designed recipient-donor pair groups, according to their presumable differences in heparanase expression: N1, AA-AG, AA-GG, and AG-GG recipient-donor pairs (recipient heparanase expression is presumably higher compared with the donor); N2, AA-AA, AG-AG, and GG-GG recipient-donor pairs (the same HPSE gene expression levels); and N3, GG-AG, GG-AA, and AG-AA recipient-donor pairs (low heparanase expression in the patients relative to high expression level in the donors). Significant deviations (P<0.05) are in boldface.
