Major histocompatibility complex in Osteichthyes

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2020
Based on analysis of available genome sequences, five gene lineages of MHC class I molecules (MHC I-U, -Z, -S, -L and -P) and one gene lineage of MHC class II molecules (MHC II-D) have been identified in Osteichthyes.

MHC class I allele diversity in cynomolgus macaques of Vietnamese origin [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis, Mafa) have been used as important experimental animal models for carrying out biomedical researches. The results of biomedical experiments strongly depend on the immunogenetic background of animals, especially on

Major Histocompatibility Complex-B haplotype and ovarian graft response

Poultry Science, 2023
: Gonadal tissue transfer is considered one of the best methods to preserve genetic variability. Poultry hosts can receive a gonad from a donor of a different genetic background, sustain the growth of this graft, and produce gametes from it ...

Dendritic cells use macropinocytosis and the mannose receptor to concentrate macromolecules in the major histocompatibility complex class II compartment: downregulation by cytokines and bacterial products

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1995
We have previously demonstrated that human peripheral blood low density mononuclear cells cultured in granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin (IL)-4 develop into dendritic cells (DCs) that are extremely efficient in ...

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 ...

Impact of Antigen Presentation Mechanisms on Immune Response in Autoimmune Hepatitis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
The liver is a very tolerogenic organ. It is continually exposed to a multitude of antigens and is able to promote an effective immune response against pathogens and simultaneously immune tolerance against self-antigens. In spite of strong peripheral and

Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Class I and MHC Class II Proteins: Conformational Plasticity in Antigen Presentation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Antigen presentation by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins is essential for adaptive immunity. Prior to presentation, peptides need to be generated from proteins that are either produced by the cell’s own translational machinery or that are ...

Cholesterol lowering drug may influence cellular immune response by altering MHC II function[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) displays peptides to CD4+ T cells. Depletion of membrane cholesterol from APCs by methyl β-cyclodextrin treatment compromises peptide-MHC II ...

Production of Triple-Gene (GGTA1, B2M and CIITA)-Modified Donor Pigs for Xenotransplantation

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Activation of human immune T-cells by swine leukocyte antigens class I (SLA-I) and class II (SLA-II) leads to xenograft destruction. Here, we generated the GGTA1, B2M, and CIITA (GBC) triple-gene-modified Diannan miniature pigs, analyzed the ...
