Dendritic cells crosspresent antigens from live B16 cells more efficiently than from apoptotic cells and protect from melanoma in a therapeutic model. [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DC) are able to elicit anti-tumoral CD8(+) T cell responses by cross-presenting exogenous antigens in association with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules.

Escape from the phagosome: the explanation for MHC-I processing of mycobacterial antigens?
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is thought to live in an altered phagosomal environment. In this setting, the mechanisms by which mycobacterial antigens access the major histocompatibility class I (MHC-I) processing machinery remain incompletely ...

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.

Sequence of the mouse Q4 class I gene and characterization of the gene product [PDF]
The Q4 class I gene has been shown to participate in gene conversion events within the mouse major histocompatibility complex. Its complete genomic nucleotide sequence has been determined.

Aim. Human major histocompatibility complex class I antigens (HLA-A, -B, and -C) are heterodimetric molecules composed of a heavy chain non covalently associated with an invariant protein known as B2-microglobulin. Besides being expressed on the membrane

Infectious Diseases and Immunity: Special Reference to Major Histocompatibility Complex
Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) are an inherent system of alloantigens, which are the products of genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC).

A peptide filtering relation quantifies MHC class I peptide optimization [PDF]
Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I molecules enable cytotoxic T lymphocytes to destroy virus-infected or cancerous cells, thereby preventing disease progression. MHC class I molecules provide a snapshot of the contents of a cell by binding to

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

E5 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 selectively downregulates surface HLA class I [PDF]
Papillomaviruses have evolved mechanisms that result in escape from host immune surveillance. The E5 protein is expressed early in papillomavirus infection in the deep layers of the infected epithelium.
