Frequency of Major Histocompatibility Antigens Class I in Mazandaran Province
Background and purpose: Major histocompatibility antigens are the most polymorphic components of the immune system. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) in a population in Mazandaran province, Iran ...

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

The MHC class I MICA gene is a histocompatibility antigen in kidney transplantation
AbstractThe identity of histocompatibility loci, besides human leukocyte antigen (HLA), remains elusive. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I MICA gene is a candidate histocompatibility locus. Here, we investigate its role in a French multicenter cohort of 1,356 kidney transplants.

Structure and function of major histocompatibility complex class I antigens [PDF]
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules control the repertoire and function of CD8 T cells and NK cells, and both cell types are involved in transplant rejection. Understanding the regulatory role of MHC class I molecules is important in the design of better therapies.

Homotypic and heterotypic in cis associations of MHC class I molecules at the cell surface
Through the presentation of peptide antigens to cytotoxic T lymphocytes, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules mediate the adaptive immune response against tumors and viruses.

Antigen-induced suppression: The role of Class I major histocompatibility antigens
The role of Class I major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens in the induction of specific suppression of graft rejection has been investigated. Two experimental transplantation models have been used ’ fully vascularized heterotopic Cardiac altografts in the mouse and fully vascularized orthotopic renal allografts in the rat.

Major histocompatibility class I antigens in the Lebanese population
Except for two reports on Lebanese immigrants, there have been no studies on the major histocompatibility [MHC] antigens in the Lebanese population. We describe the frequency and distribution of MHC class I antigens present in the A, B and C loci based on data obtained from 200 healthy unrelated individuals from different parts of Lebanon.
