Lack of class I H-2 antigens in cells transformed by radiation leukemia virus is associated with methylation and rearrangement of H-2 DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Transformation of murine thymocytes by radiation leukemia virus is associated with reduced expression of the class I antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and increased methylation and altered restriction enzyme patterns of MHC ...

Determination of a predictive cleavage motif for eluted major histocompatibility complex class II ligands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
CD4+ T cells have a major role in regulating immune responses. They are activated by recognition of peptides mostly generated from exogenous antigens through the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II pathway.

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.

Two polymorphisms facilitate differences in plasticity between two chicken major histocompatibility complex class I proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Major histocompatibility complex class I molecules (MHC I) present peptides to cytotoxic T-cells at the surface of almost all nucleated cells. The function of MHC I molecules is to select high affinity peptides from a large intracellular pool and they ...

Endogenous versus exogenous fatty acid availability affects lysosomal acidity and MHC class II expression

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Although the immune system, inflammation, and cellular metabolism are linked to diseases associated with dyslipidemias, the mechanism(s) remain unclear.

MHC Class I+/II− Dendritic Cells Induce Hapten-Specific Immune Responses In Vitro and In Vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Activation requirements and biologic properties of hapten-specific, major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted CD8+ T lymphocytes are not fully understood.

Evolution of major histocompatibility complex gene copy number.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2019
MHC genes, which code for proteins responsible for presenting pathogen-derived antigens to the host immune system, show remarkable copy-number variation both between and within species.

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 ...

Molecular modeling of an antigenic complex between a viral peptide and a class I major histocompatibility glycoprotein [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Computer simulation of the conformations of short antigenic peptides (&lo residues) either free or bound to their receptor, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)- encoded glycoprotein H-2 Ld, was employed to explain experimentally determined ...
