The bone marrow transplantation (BMT) between haplo-identical combinations (haploBMT) could cause unacceptable bone marrow graft rejection and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

In hematopoietic stem cell transplants, T cells mediate graft-versus-leukemia (GVL), but GVL can fail leading to leukemia relapse. Here the authors use a mouse model in which T cells target the minor histocompatibility antigen H60 to show how this can ...

Allelic variation in HLA-B and HLA-C sequences and the evolution of the HLA-B alleles [PDF]
Several new HLA-B (B8, B51, Bw62)- and HLA-C (Cw6, Cw7)-specific genes were isolated either as genomic cosmid or cDNA clones to study the diversity of HLA antigens.

High-throughput minor histocompatibility antigen prediction [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: Minor histocompatibility antigens (mHags) are a diverse collection of MHC-bound peptides that have immunological implications in the context of allogeneic transplantation because of their differential presence in donor and host, and thus play a critical role in the induction of the detrimental graft-versus-host ...

Cell-based therapy in prophylaxis and treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease
Hematopoietic allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is a curative option for patients with hematological malignancies. However, due to disparities in major and minor histocompatibility antigens between donor and recipient, severe inflammatory ...

Most allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) recipients receive peripheral blood stem cell grafts resulting in a 30%–70% incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a major cause of mortality and morbidity in long-term ...

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

This study describes the involvement of male-specific minor histocompatibility antigen H-Y in vitro cultured epidermal equivalent (EE) rejection. Male and female Balb/c or C3H/HeN keratinocytes were isolated and cultured separately.

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