Cryptic female choice favours sperm from major histocompatibility complex-dissimilar males [PDF]

, 2013
Cryptic female choice may enable polyandrous females to avoid inbreeding or bias offspring variability at key loci after mating. However, the role of these genetic benefits in cryptic female choice remains poorly understood. Female red junglefowl, Gallus

The Accuracy of Sequence-Specific Oligonucleotide and Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction HLA Typing in Determining the Presence of Pre-Transplant Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies and Total Eplet Mismatches for Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
High resolution human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing is important in establishing eplet compatibility and the specificity of donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (DSA).

Allelic variation in HLA-B and HLA-C sequences and the evolution of the HLA-B alleles [PDF]

, 1989
Several new HLA-B (B8, B51, Bw62)- and HLA-C (Cw6, Cw7)-specific genes were isolated either as genomic cosmid or cDNA clones to study the diversity of HLA antigens.

454 screening of individual MHC variation in an endemic island passerine [PDF]

, 2014
Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) code for receptors that are central to the adaptive immune response of vertebrates. These genes are therefore important genetic markers with which to study adaptive genetic variation in the wild.

Mother-child histocompatibility and risk of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus among mothers. [PDF]

, 2020
The study objective was to test the hypothesis that having histocompatible children increases the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), possibly by contributing to the persistence of fetal cells acquired during ...

The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in Schizophrenia: A Review

Journal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2016
Epidemiological studies and mouse models suggest that maternal immune activation, induced clinically through prenatal exposure to one of several infectious diseases, is a risk factor in the development of schizophrenia.

Accuracy of Programs for the Determination of Human Leukocyte Antigen Alleles from Next-Generation Sequencing Data

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes code for proteins that play a central role in the function of the immune system by presenting peptide antigens to T cells.

MHC-linked and un-linked class I genes in the wallaby [PDF]

, 2009
Background: MHC class I antigens are encoded by a rapidly evolving gene family comprising classical and non-classical genes that are found in all vertebrates and involved in diverse immune functions.

Analysis of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Immunopeptidomes Using Mass Spectrometry*

Molecular & Cellular Proteomics, 2015
The myriad of peptides presented at the cell surface by class I and class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules are referred to as the immunopeptidome and are of great importance for basic and translational science.

Classical and Non-Classical HLA Alleles as Supplementary Markers in Indirect Kinship Parentage Testing

Immuno, 2022
A civil paternity investigation involving the parents of the deceased alleged father in order to establish a family relationship is presented. On the basis of the 23 autosomal short tandem repeat (aSTR) genotyping results, conclusive proof of paternity ...
