Polymorphism of the tumor necrosis factor beta gene in systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]
We investigated the Nco I restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the tumor necrosis factor beta (TNFB) gene in 173 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 192 unrelated healthy controls, and eleven panel families, all of German ...

Induction of specific tolerance by intrathymic injection of recipient muscle cells transfected with donor class I major histocompatibility complex. [PDF]
Induction of tolerance to allogeneic MHC antigens has been a goal in the field of transplantation because it would reduce or eliminate the need for generalized immunosuppression.

HISTOCOMPATIBILITY TESTING IN HUMAN RENAL TRANSPLANTATION
During the period May 20, 1969 to December 14, 1970, histocompatibility testing was performed on 21 patients undergoing renal transplantation in Japan.The data was divided into two groups; prospective and retrospective. The prospective group included 10 related donors. The retrospective group included 10 related and one unrelated donor.

Structural analysis of the adenovirus type 2 E3/19K protein using mutagenesis and a panel of conformation-sensitive monoclonal antibodies [PDF]
The E3/19K protein of human adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) was the first viral protein shown to interfere with antigen presentation. This 25 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein binds to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules in the endoplasmic ...

DR-bearing T lymphocytes in thoracic duct lymph [PDF]
T cells having DR antigens were shown to be present in high numbers in the thoracic duct lymph of patients undergoing long-term drainage. As drainage progresses the proportion of T DR cells in the lymph increases to levels as high as 70% at 6 weeks ...
