Induction of specific tolerance by intrathymic injection of recipient muscle cells transfected with donor class I major histocompatibility complex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
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.

Forecast of cytotoxic T lymphocyte epitope using sequence weighting and artificial neural network based on EasyPred modeler [PDF]

open access: yesExploration of Immunology
Aim: Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) examine the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I ligands on nucleated cells to detect antigens derived from pathogens and cancer cells.

Reconstructing Macroevolutionary Patterns in Avian MHC Architecture With Genomic Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) is a hyper-polymorphic genomic region, which forms a part of the vertebrate adaptive immune system and is crucial for intra- and extra-cellular pathogen recognition (MHC-I and MHC-IIA/B, respectively).

EXPRESSION OF A FUNCTIONAL CHIMERIC lg-MHC CLASS II PROTEIN [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
composed of the a- and ß-chains of the MHC class I1 I-E molecule fused to antibody V regions derived from anti-human CD4 mAb MT310. Expression vectors were constructed containing the functional, rearranged gene segments coding for the V region domains of

Class II transactivator induces expression of MHC-I and MHC-II in transmissible Tasmanian devil facial tumours

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2022
MHC-I and MHC-II molecules are critical components of antigen presentation and T cell immunity to pathogens and cancer. The two monoclonal transmissible devil facial tumours (DFT1, DFT2) exploit MHC-I pathways to overcome immunological anti-tumour and ...

Cardiosphere-derived cells suppress allogeneic lymphocytes by production of PGE2 acting via the EP4 receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
derived cells (CDCs) are a cardiac progenitor cell population, which have been shown to possess cardiac regenerative properties and can improve heart function in a variety of cardiac diseases. Studies in large animal models have predominantly focussed on

Expression of MHC Class I and II in Growing Ovarian Follicles of Young and Old Laying Hens, Gallus domesticus

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2005
The aim of this study was to determine whether the expressions of MHC class I and II in the ovarian follicles change with follicular growth and aging of birds. Theca layer of white follicles (WF), the largest and the third largest preovulatory follicles

MHC motif viewer [PDF]

open access: yesImmunogenetics, 2008
In vertebrates, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) presents peptides to the immune system. In humans, MHCs are called human leukocyte antigens (HLAs), and some of the loci encoding them are the most polymorphic in the human genome. Different MHC molecules present different subsets of peptides, and knowledge of their binding specificities is ...

Cryptic MHC Polymorphism Revealed but Not Explained by Selection on the Class IIB Peptide-Binding Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The immune genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are characterized by extraordinarily high levels of nucleotide and haplotype diversity. This variation is maintained by pathogen-mediated balancing selection that is operating on the peptide ...
