Determining the Quantitative Principles of T Cell Response to Antigenic Disparity in Stem Cell Transplantation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Alloreactivity compromising clinical outcomes in stem cell transplantation is observed despite HLA matching of donors and recipients. This has its origin in the variation between the exomes of the two, which provides the basis for minor ...

Enhanced Expression of Interferon-γ-Induced Antigen-Processing Machinery Components in a Spontaneously Occurring Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2007
In human tumors, changes in the surface expression and/or function of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigens are frequently found and may provide malignant cells with a mechanism to escape control of the immune system. This altered human

Canonical and Non-Canonical Functions of the Autophagy Machinery in MHC Restricted Antigen Presentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Macroautophagy delivers cytoplasmic constituents for lysosomal degradation. Since major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules sample peptides after lysosomal degradation for presentation to CD4+ T cells, it was originally described that ...

Current research status of HLA in immune‐related diseases

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2021
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA), also known as human major histocompatibility complex (MHC), is encoded by the HLA gene complex, and is currently known to have the highest gene density and the most polymorphisms among human chromosomal areas.

Optimized Whole Genome Association Scanning for Discovery of HLA Class I-Restricted Minor Histocompatibility Antigens

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation as treatment for hematological diseases face the risk of Graft-versus-Host Disease as well as relapse. Graft-versus-Host Disease and the favorable Graft-versus-Leukemia effect are mediated by donor

Discovery and Differential Processing of HLA Class II-Restricted Minor Histocompatibility Antigen LB-PIP4K2A-1S and Its Allelic Variant by Asparagine Endopeptidase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Minor histocompatibility antigens are the main targets of donor-derived T-cells after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Identification of these antigens and understanding their biology are a key requisite for more insight into how graft vs.

Antigenic peptide binding by class I and class II histocompatibility proteins [PDF]

open access: yesStructure, 1994
The recent determination of the structure of a class II MHC molecule complexed to a specific peptide reveals both similarities and differences with peptide binding by class I MHC.

Comparative Reverse Vaccinology of Piscirickettsia salmonis, Aeromonas salmonicida, Yersinia ruckeri, Vibrio anguillarum and Moritella viscosa, Frequent Pathogens of Atlantic Salmon and Lumpfish Aquaculture

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
Marine finfish aquaculture is affected by diverse infectious diseases, and they commonly occur as co-infection. Some of the most frequent and prevalent Gram-negative bacterial pathogens of the finfish aquaculture include Piscirickettsia salmonis ...

Frequency of HLA class I and II in an admixed Brazilian population with psoriasis [PDF]

open access: yesAnais Brasileiros de Dermatologia
Background Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated disease with a significant genetic component. The HLA-C*06:02 allele is one of the most strongly associated with the disease, particularly influencing early onset and severity. There are few current data

Minors come of age: minor histocompatibility antigens and graft-versus-host disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Minor histocompatibility antigens (miHA) are responsible for the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease in the setting of a major histocompatibility complex matched sibling allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
