Computational modeling and confirmation of leukemia-associated minor histocompatibility antigens

Blood Advances, 2018
: T-cell responses to minor histocompatibility antigens (mHAs) mediate both antitumor immunity (graft-versus-leukemia [GVL]) and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Dual Lineages of Langerhans Cells Cooperate to Restore the Immune Barrier after Skin Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
After skin injury, the epidermal immune barrier is rebuilt by two sources of Langerhans cells. Resident Langerhans cells first move into the wound during re‐epithelialization, guided by CXCR2 signaling. Later, recruited monocytes become long‐lived Langerhans cells.

Minor Antigen Disparities Impede Induction of Long Lasting Chimerism and Tolerance through Bone Marrow Transplantation with Costimulation Blockade

Journal of Immunology Research, 2016
Mixed chimerism and tolerance can be successfully induced in rodents through allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) with costimulation blockade (CB), but varying success rates have been reported with distinct models and protocols.

Tolerogenic effect of noninherited maternal antigens in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
Major histocompatibility complex antigens that provoke severe transplant reactions are referred to as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) in human and as the H-2 in mice.

Evaluation of immunosuppression protocols for MHC-matched allogeneic iPS cell-based transplantation using a mouse skin transplantation model

Inflammation and Regeneration, 2022
Background Off-the-shelf major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-matched iPS cells (iPSC) can potentially initiate host immune responses because of the existence of numerous minor antigens.

In Search of Immunodominant Minor Histocompatibility Antigens [PDF]

Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2013
survival. Larger retrospective studies should parse out relapse risk in specific cytogenetic subgroups, to offer more guidance to the practicing clinician. Our hope is that this and other retrospective studies of MRD monitoring leads to an assessment of the prognostic impact of MRD in well-defined molecular and cytogenetic subsets of AML.

Strategies for inducing diabetes in laboratory animals: Advances from chemical, surgical, immunologic, dietary, and genetic approaches

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the principal experimental approaches used to induce diabetes in animal models. Strategies include chemical agents (streptozotocin, alloxan, dithizone, gold thioglucose), dietary interventions (high‐fat and high‐sugar diets), surgical methods (total or partial pancreatectomy), genetic models (db/db, ob/ob, Goto‐Kakizaki [GK ...

Toward a network model of MHC class II-restricted antigen processing

Frontiers in Immunology, 2013
The standard model of Major Histocompatibility Complex class II (MHCII)-restricted antigen processing depicts a straightforward, linear pathway: Internalized antigens are converted into peptides that load in a chaperone dependent manner onto nascent ...

TCR-Like CAR-T Cells Targeting MHC-Bound Minor Histocompatibility Antigens

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Minor histocompatibility antigens (mHAgs) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are highly immunogenic as they are foreign antigens and cause polymorphism between donors and recipients. Adoptive cell therapy with mHAg-specific T cells may

A polymorphism in the splice donor site of ZNF419 results in the novel renal cell carcinoma-associated minor histocompatibility antigen ZAPHIR. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Nonmyeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) can induce remission in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), but this graft-versus-tumor (GVT) effect is often accompanied by graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
