Dosing strategies for switching from oral risperidone to paliperidone palmitate: Effects on clinical outcomes. [PDF]
IntroductionThere are currently no guidelines for switching patients from oral risperidone to paliperidone palmitate (Invega Sustenna®). Furthermore, the paliperidone long-acting injectable (LAI) package insert does not recommend bridging with oral ...

Preen gland microbiota covary with major histocompatibility complex genotype in a songbird
Pathogen-mediated selection at the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is thought to promote MHC-based mate choice in vertebrates. Mounting evidence implicates odour in conveying MHC genotype, but the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain.

Chaperone-mediated MHC-I peptide exchange in antigen presentation
This work focuses on molecules that are encoded by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and that bind self-, foreign- or tumor-derived peptides and display these at the cell surface for recognition by receptors on T lymphocytes (T cell receptors ...

Characterization of two MHC II genes (DOB, DRB) in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus)
Background The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is responsible for detecting and addressing foreign pathogens inside the body. While the general structure of MHC genes is relatively well conserved among mammalian species, it is notably different ...
