Allorecognition genes drive reproductive isolation in Podospora anserina
Allorecognition, the capacity to discriminate self from conspecific non-self, is a ubiquitous organismal feature typically governed by genes evolving under balancing selection.

Allorecognition, the ability of an organism to distinguish kin from non-kin, or self from non-self, has been studied extensively in a group of invertebrate chordates, the colonial ascidians called botryllids (Subphylum Tunicata, Class Ascidiacea, Family ...

My interest in uterine natural killer (NK) cells began in the early 1990s, when I and others described the striking accumulation of NK cells in the uterine mucosa during the establishment of the placenta. Whilst working as a reproductive pathologist, I had become intrigued by pre-eclampsia, a mysterious syndrome that only occurs in pregnant women.

The ‘immunology trap’ of anthozoans [PDF]
Organisms commonly respond to infectious agents via effector arms of immune systems. However, whereas innate immunity in vertebrates has been intensely investigated, we still strive to understand how cnidarians’ immunity operates, consulting literature ...

A mathematical model of the early inflammatory response in transplantation is formulated with ordinary differential equations. We first consider the inflammatory events associated only with the initial surgical procedure and the subsequent ischemia ...

Allorecognition, the ability to distinguish “self” from “nonself” based on allelic differences at allorecognition loci, is common in all domains of life.

Immunological allograft rejection is based on the process of recognition of donor antigens by T-cell receptors. Antigens are generally represented by molecules of major hystocompatibility complex (MHC), expressed by the donor organ tissue cells.

Mechanisms of allorecognition and xenorecognition in transplantation. [PDF]
Foreign antigen recognition is the ability of immune cells to distinguish self from nonself, which is crucial for immune responses in both invertebrates and vertebrates. In vertebrates, T cells play a pivotal role in graft rejection by recognizing alloantigens presented by antigen-presenting cells through direct, indirect, or semidirect pathways.

Colony specificity in Botrylloides leachi. I. Morphological aspects [PDF]
We studied colony specificity in the colonial ascidian Botrylloides leachi which, as in other botryllid ascidians, leads to either fusion or non-fusion between contacting colonies.

Patterns of 1,748 Unique Human Alloimmune Responses Seen by Simple Machine Learning Algorithms
Allele specific antibody response against the polymorphic system of HLA is the allogeneic response marker determining the immunological risk for graft acceptance before and after organ transplantation and therefore routinely studied during the patient's ...
