VISION

The subject of Immunology has grown globally and in the country over the years. There are very few institutions in the country where Immunology is taught and these curriculum lack immune related applications targeted at patient care. AIIMS being most excellent tertiary patient care service with high patient load, suitable infrastructure cum expertise. Our department has been crucial in promoting clinical research in multiple areas of immunology. For the last more than four decades of existence, the department has been continuously providing patient care services including HLA typing and donor selection both for HSCT and organ transplantation, identification of donor specific antibodies by cross matches/PRA,diagnosis of HLA associated disease, Flowcytometry and other related clinical investigations.Several research activities were initiated and developed. These include role of HLA in disease susceptibility and progression, immunogenetics of autoimmune (RA, T1D, SLE, Celiac disease) and infectious diseases (Leprosy, Tuberculosis, Leishmaniasis, HIV/AIDS); Genomic diversity of HLA, HLA matching and transplant outcome, antibody basis of rejection, effector immune functions, immune response genes, technology development etc.,In the past 2 decades, the patient care services and research has expanded tremendously. The clinicians always being under extensive pressure of patient loads often demand more recent investigations like chimerism analysis for hematopoietic stem cell monitoring, donor specific antibody identification for renal transplantation, immunophenotyping for leukemia, diagnostics of primary immunodeficiency (PID) disorders (LAD1, LAD2, SCID,CVID,CGD etc., The department has already accomplished such additional investigations and perceives to further expand and utilize the expertise established for the benefit of clinical services on routine basis. Newer technologies now available in the department include Luminex based anti-donor antibody identification, Sequence based HLA typing and Flowcytometry based immunophenotyping. The department established an unrelated donor marrow donor registry (AIDMR) in 1994 for patients requiring stem cell transplantation but have no HLA matched family donor. We maintain the links with international donor pool as well. The department has been making extensive efforts in increasing donor recruitment drive using limited resources. Research areas of the department have been further expanded in the past few years. We have initiated studies on immunogenetics of HIV, role of non-classical HLA in organ and bone marrow transplantation and in TB, studies on the phenotypic and functional characterization of T cell subsets in shaping host immune response, pathways of immune suppression in diseases like TB, HIV, leprosy and visceral leishmaniasis. Our efforts are focused on improving patient services, on increasing capacity building as well as human resource development and we intend to continue with such objectives in future.The department intends to develop and boost national and international networking both in research and academia relating to molecular research in indigenous natural products such as plant derived medicinal ingredients as immunomodulator, potential immunotherapeutic agents.The department  has been advised by the SFC sub-committee to initiate integrated MD+Ph.D and M.Sc+Ph.D curriculum in Medical and Experimental Immunology. In the long term the department intends to expand to a Centre for Immunology and Molecular Medicine

 

MILESTONES ACHIEVED

 

The department continued its activities in teaching, research and hospital services related to a range of laboratory investigations for patients requiring organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as well as those needing HLA test for disease diagnostic purposes.  Several sensitive assays such as the Luminex based HLA testing and antibody screening system have been well established and are in routine use.  The solid phase assays provide crucial information on donor specific antibodies (DSA) and virtual cross match for patients referred to the Department from AIIMS and other centres in India.  To that extent, the AIIMS laboratory continue to serve as the ‘national referral centre’ for HLA testing SPA based DSA determination and post transplant antibody monitoring. Further, a national level Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QC/QA) service is offered to nearly 15 centres  engaged in HLA testing all over India. Services are also offered for the detection of non-HLA antibodies, particularly those directed to MHC     class I related Antigen (MICA) system on case to case basis. Similarly SNP based genetic polymorphism  analysis in cytokines and chemokine genes as well as Chimerism analysis for HSCT patients is offered on routine basis.  The Department has been designated as ‘Centre of Excellence in Molecular Medicine’ by the Indian Council of Medical Research.

The research activities of the department span several key areas of translational value.  These include i) Immunobiology of renal transplantation with specific focus on determining the clinical relevance of HLA and non-HLA specific antibodies, ii) Genetic architecture of autoimmune diseases with particular focus on type 1 diabetes and celiac disease and evaluation of HLA linked biomarkers, iii) Immunogenetic basis of susceptibility to HIV  infections and disease progression to AIDS, iv) Immune predictors of early graft rejection, both in HSCT as well as organ transplantation.  The focus here is to evaluate the relevance of MICA antibodies as well as soluble MICA levels as predictors of graft outcome , v) Immunological mechanisms underlying infectious diseases with particular focus on Leishmaniasis and tuberculosis, vi) Immunophenotyping of patients with various types of leukemia and evaluation of novel immunological tools, vii) Clinical significance of HLA-G molecule in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, viii) HSCT monitoring and follow up using in-house STR kits for Chimerism analysis, ix) Expansion of the Asian Indian Donor Marrow Registry, x) Immunogenetic basis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Professor Mitra and his group have published several original research papers in leading international journals.  Currently 5  students are pursuing for Ph.D under his leadership.  4 of his students who have already been awarded Ph.D under him, occupy positions of eminence in India and abroad.

Research Experience

I have been working in the area of Histocompatibility, Immunogenetics and transplant Immunologysince past 18 years. My job involves supervision of the tissue typing laboratory, which is the national referral center for HLA testing of patients requiring Organs and Bone marrow transplants. My research interests are focused on investigating the genetic diversity of HLA genes in Indian population, understanding association of HLA genes with diseases like type 1 diabetes, autoimmune thyroiditis, spondilitis, epilepsy, vitiligo, etc and investigation genetic and immunological factors influencing outcome of transplants. I have made significant contribution towards development and expansion of the Asian Indian Bone Marrow registry (AIDMR), which is the first and only Indian volunteer donor registry.

 

Teaching Experience : I have been teaching the undergraduate and post graduate students from AIIMS and those sent from other Indian centres for training. Under my supervision various thesis have been done
