The invention relates to the technical field of immune carriers, in particular to immune carrier microspheres loaded with individualized MHC-II binding polypeptide and vaccine preparation and application of the immune carrier microspheres loaded with the individualized MHC-II binding polypeptide. The core microsphere is loaded with individualized MHC-II binding polypeptide, the sequence of the MHC-II binding polypeptide is obtained by predicting and screening based on an HLA genotyping result, and each HLA allele corresponds to at least one high-affinity MHC-II binding polypeptide; and the shell is a glucan or other polymer coating layer. The preparation method has the advantages that the T epitope and the B epitope are separately subjected to immune competitive inhibition inside and outside the microspheres, so that a better immune effect is obtained. The antibody avoids cross reaction side effects; carrier molecule diversity is reduced, and side effects caused by T cell over-activation are avoided; th1 epitopes and Th2 epitopes can be contained in the microspheres, so that antibody immunity and T cell immunity functions are generated; the particle size of the microspheres is controllable, and the immunologic function can be achieved without adjuvants.

Provided are methods for rapid multiplex HLA genotyping and transcript quantitation. In some embodiments, the presently disclosed methods include providing a. sample from the cell, tissue, or organ that has mRNA derived from an HLA gene product; reverse transcribing the mRNA to produce a. pool of cDNAs; amplifying the cDNAs that result from reverse transcription of HLA-specific mRNAs to produce a pool of HLA-specific cDNAs; and determining the sequence of each HLA-specific cDNAs, whereby the HLA status of the cell, tissue, organ, or subject is determined. Also provided are methods for genotyping donor cells, tissues, and / or organs meant for transplantation into recipients. In some embodiments, the methods can be used to identify the presence of absence of each of HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB 1 / 3 / 4 / 5, -DQA1, and -DQB1 in a biological sample.
