In Silico Derivation of HLA-Specific Alloreactivity Potential from Whole Exome Sequencing of Stem Cell Transplant Donors and Recipients: Understanding the Quantitative Immuno-biology of Allogeneic Transplantation [PDF]
Donor T cell mediated graft vs. host effects may result from the aggregate alloreactivity to minor histocompatibility antigens (mHA) presented by the HLA in each donor-recipient pair (DRP) undergoing stem cell transplantation (SCT). Whole exome sequencing has demonstrated extensive nucleotide sequence variation in HLA-matched DRP. Non-synonymous single

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome is a HLA-I processing competent organelle. [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) resides in a long-lived phagosomal compartment that resists maturation. The manner by which Mtb antigens are processed and presented on MHC Class I molecules is poorly understood. Using human dendritic cells and IFN-gamma

HLA Antigens in Migraine [PDF]
SYNOPSISFifty consecutive patients with migraine headaches were evaluated for the presence of 10 HLA‐A and 14 HLA‐B antigens by means of the microlymphocytotoxicity assay. Comparisons were made between classical and common migraine, and between patients with and without a family history of migraine.

HLA Antigens in Narcolepsy and Idiopathic Central Nervous System Hypersomnolence [PDF]
Several studies have shown familial incidence of narcolepsy and idiopathic central nervous system (CNS) hypersomnia. HLA antigen studies performed in mongoloid and caucasoid narcoleptic patients on the A, B, and C loci have yielded conflicting results ...

The Humoral Theory of Transplantation: Epitope Analysis and the Pathogenicity of HLA Antibodies [PDF]
Central to the humoral theory of transplantation is production of antibodies by the recipient against mismatched HLA antigens in the donor organ. Not all mismatches result in antibody production, however, and not all antibodies are pathogenic.

Human T cell surface antigens bearing a structural relationship to HLA antigens. [PDF]
Three cell surface antigens that are structurally related to the human major histocompatibility antigens (called HLA antigens) have been characterized from the leukemic T cell line MOLT-4.

HLA profile in patients with AIDS and tuberculosis [PDF]
Studies carried out in various populations have reported an association between some HLA specificities and susceptibility to tuberculosis. We investigated the class I and class II HLA profile in Brazilian patients of various ethnic backgrounds who had ...

Identification and biophysical characterization of Plasmodium peptide binding by common African HLAs [PDF]
Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) are immunoreceptors that present peptide antigens at the cell surface to T cells as a primary mechanism of immune surveillance.

Hla antigens in whipple's disease [PDF]
AbstractThe prevalence of HLA–A and B antigen loci in patients with Whipple's disease was determined from data obtained in a review of the literature and from personal communications. Data on the HLA–A and B locus typing of 30 patients were available (with the exception that 1 of the patients was not typed for the HLA–B locus), and for an additional 18

Current research status of HLA in immune‐related diseases
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA), also known as human major histocompatibility complex (MHC), is encoded by the HLA gene complex, and is currently known to have the highest gene density and the most polymorphisms among human chromosomal areas.
