Differential phosphorylation of murine class I major histocompatibility antigens
Recent studies have shown that the H-2K and H-2D transplantation antigens are expressed differentially in different tissues of mouse. Our previous investigations also established that in thioglycolate-stimulated peritoneal macrophages the H-2Dk antigen exists in distinct cell surface and intracellular forms. These two forms are glycosylated differently.

Impaired Intracellular Transport and Cell Surface Expression of Nonpolymorphic HLA-E [PDF]
The assembly of the classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of peptide ligands and ~2-microglobulin (~2m). Formation of this trimolecular complex is a prerequisite for e~

Is There any Greater Possibility in Finding HLA-identical Unrelated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donors among Thalassemia Families for Transplantation of Thalassemia Patients? [PDF]
Background: Thalassemia is probably the most common single gene disorder causing a major public health problem in the world. Currently, allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative therapy for thalassemia.

Endogenous antigen presentation of MHC class II epitopes through non-autophagic pathways
Antigenic peptides presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules are generally derived from exogenous proteins acquired by antigen presenting cells. However, in some circumstances, MHC class II molecules can present intracellular

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

Regulation of Antigen Export to the Cytosol During Cross-Presentation
Cross-priming refers to the induction of primary cytotoxic CD8+ T cell responses to antigens that are not expressed in antigen presenting cells (APCs) responsible for T cell priming.

EXPRESSION AND FUNCTION OF A NONGLYCOSYLATED MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY CLASS I ANTIGEN [PDF]
The major histocompatibility class I antigens, expressed in most somatic cells, have carbohydrate moieties. We constructed mutant mouse MHC class I genes in which codons for the N-linked glycosylation sites were replaced by those of other amino acids.

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