Clinical, immunological and genetic features in eleven Algerian patients with major histocompatibility complex class II expression deficiency

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2012
Presenting processed antigens to CD4+ lymphocytes during the immune response involves major histocompatibility complex class II molecules. MHC class II genes transcription is regulated by four transcription factors: CIITA, RFXANK, RFX5 and RFXAP. Defects

A rationally designed cancer vaccine based on NIR-II fluorescence image-guided light-triggered remote control of antigen cross-presentation and autophagy

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
Cancer vaccines represent a promising immunotherapeutic treatment modality. The promotion of cross-presentation of extracellular tumor-associated antigens on the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules and dendritic cell maturation at ...

IL-6-mediated MHC class II induction on RIN-5AH insulinoma cells by IFN-γ occurs via the G-protein pathway

Mediators of Inflammation, 1995
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen expression has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune type 1 diabetes. In this study we examined the role of various cytoldnes that may induce MHC class II surface antigen expression ...

Antigen processing for MHC class II presentation via autophagy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
T cells recognize proteolytic fragments of antigens that are presented to them on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. MHC class I molecules present primarily products of proteasomal proteolysis to CD8+ T cells, while MHC class II molecules ...

Involvement of Mhc Loci in immune responses that are not Ir-gene-controlled [PDF]

, 1982
Twenty-nine randomly chosen, soluble antigens, many of them highly complex, were used to immunize mice of two strains, C3H and B10.RIII. Lymphnode cells from the immunized mice were restimulated in vitro with the priming antigens and the proliferative ...

Genetic and serological heterogeneity of the supertypic HLA-B locus specificities Bw4 and Bw6 [PDF]

, 1989
Gene cloning and sequencing of the HLA-B locus split antigens B38 (B16.1) and B39 (B16.2) allowed localization of their subtypic as well as their public specificities HLA-Bw4 or -Bw6 to the c~-helical region of the c~ 1 domain flanked by the amino acid ...

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.

Is There any Greater Possibility in Finding HLA-identical Unrelated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donors among Thalassemia Families for Transplantation of Thalassemia Patients? [PDF]

International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2004
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.

Murine liver allograft transplantation: Tolerance and donor cell chimerism [PDF]

, 1994
Nonarterialized orthotopic liver transplantation with no immunosuppression was performed in 13 mouse‐strain combinations. Two strain combinations with major histocompatibility complex class I and class II and minor histocompatibility complex disparity ...

A lentiviral vector encoding fusion of light invariant chain and mycobacterial antigens induces protective CD4+ T cell immunity

Cell Reports, 2022
Summary: Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are highly efficient at inducing CD8+ T cell responses. However, LV-encoded antigens are processed inside the cytosol of antigen-presenting cells, which does not directly communicate with the endosomal major ...
