Interleukin 10 (IL-10) and viral IL-10 strongly reduce antigen-specific human T cell proliferation by diminishing the antigen-presenting capacity of monocytes via downregulation of class II major histocompatibility complex expression

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 1991
Interleukin 10 (IL-10) and viral IL-10 (v-IL-10) strongly reduced antigen-specific proliferation of human T cells and CD4+ T cell clones when monocytes were used as antigen-presenting cells.

Inferring HIV escape rates from multi-locus genotype data [PDF]

open access: yesFront. Immunol. 4:252. 2013, 2013
Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) recognize viral protein fragments displayed by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules on the surface of virally infected cells and generate an anti-viral response that can kill the infected cells. Virus variants whose protein fragments are not efficiently presented on infected cells or whose fragments are ...

Predicting the Binding of SARS-CoV-2 Peptides to the Major Histocompatibility Complex with Recurrent Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Predicting the binding of viral peptides to the major histocompatibility complex with machine learning can potentially extend the computational immunology toolkit for vaccine development, and serve as a key component in the fight against a pandemic. In this work, we adapt and extend USMPep, a recently proposed, conceptually simple prediction algorithm ...

Major histocompatibility complex genomic investigation of endangered Chinese alligator provides insights into the evolution of tetrapod major histocompatibility complex and survival of critically bottlenecked species

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
BackgroundThe major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene family, a vital immune gene family in vertebrates, helps animals defend against pathogens. The polymorphism of MHC genes is important for a species and is considered to be caused by the numerous ...

Major Histocompatibility Complex and Psoriasis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2018
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC), also known as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) in humans, is one of the most genetically diverse regions in the genome of various species. The human MHC contains about 400 genes in a ∼7.6-Mb span located on the short arm of the chromosomal region 6p21.3.

The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in Schizophrenia: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2016
Epidemiological studies and mouse models suggest that maternal immune activation, induced clinically through prenatal exposure to one of several infectious diseases, is a risk factor in the development of schizophrenia.

Allogeneic major histocompatibility complex‐mismatched equine bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells are targeted for death by cytotoxic anti‐major histocompatibility complex antibodies

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, 2016
Summary Background Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising cell source for treating musculoskeletal injuries in horses. Controversy exists, however, over whether major histocompatibility complex (MHC)‐mismatched MSCs are recognised by ...

The influence of T cell development on pathogen specificity and autoreactivity [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Stat. Phys. 149 (2012) 203-219, 2011
T cells orchestrate adaptive immune responses upon activation. T cell activation requires sufficiently strong binding of T cell receptors on their surface to short peptides derived from foreign proteins bound to protein products of the major histocompatibility (MHC) gene products, which are displayed on the surface of antigen presenting cells.

Analysis of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Immunopeptidomes Using Mass Spectrometry*

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Proteomics, 2015
The myriad of peptides presented at the cell surface by class I and class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules are referred to as the immunopeptidome and are of great importance for basic and translational science.
