Allorecognition Unveiled: Integrating Recent Breakthroughs Into the Current Paradigm [PDF]

open access: yesTransplant International
In transplantation, genetic differences between donor and recipient trigger immune responses that cause graft rejection. Allorecognition, the process by which the immune system discriminates allogeneic grafts, targets major histocompatibility complex ...

Creation and Maintenance of Variation in Allorecognition Loci [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2011
Allorecognition is the ability of an organism to differentiate self or close relatives from unrelated individuals. Effective allorecognition systems are critical to the survival of organisms; they prevent inbreeding, protect against pathogens, and ...

TgrC1 Has Distinct Functions in Dictyostelium Development and Allorecognition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The cell adhesion glycoproteins, TgrB1 and TgrC1, are essential for Dictyostelium development and allorecognition, but it has been impossible to determine whether their pleiotropic roles are due to one common function or to distinct functions in separate

A moonlighting function of a chitin polysaccharide monooxygenase, CWR-1, in Neurospora crassa allorecognition [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Organisms require the ability to differentiate themselves from organisms of different or even the same species. Allorecognition processes in filamentous fungi are essential to ensure identity of an interconnected syncytial colony to protect it from ...

Population Genetics of the Emergence and Evolution of Allogenic Recognition During Fertilization [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules
Allorecognition, or distinguishing between the self and nonself within the same species, is observed in both animals and plants, particularly in the context of immune reactions and self-incompatibility in sexual reproduction.

Allorecognition triggers autophagy and subsequent necrosis in the cnidarian Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Transitory fusion is an allorecognition phenotype displayed by the colonial hydroid Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus when interacting colonies share some, but not all, loci within the allorecognition gene complex (ARC).

Regulated cell death and DAMPs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in normothermic perfusion of transplant organs. Part 2: implementation strategies [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Transplantation
This Part 2 of a bipartite review commences with the delineation of a conceptual model outlining the fundamental role of injury-induced regulated cell death (RCD) in the release of DAMPs that drive innate immune responses involved in early inflammation ...

From seabed to sickbed: lessons gained from allorecognition in marine invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Despite decades of progress, long-term outcomes in human organ transplantation remain challenging. Functional decline in transplanted organs has stagnated over the past two decades, with most patients requiring lifelong immunosuppression, therapies that ...

Establishment of the immunological self in juvenile Patiria pectinifera post-metamorphosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Ontogeny of the immune system is a fundamental immunology issue. One indicator of immune system maturation is the establishment of the immunological self, which describes the ability of the immune system to distinguish allogeneic individuals ...
