Impaired Intracellular Transport and Cell Surface Expression of Nonpolymorphic HLA-E [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The assembly of the classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of peptide ligands and ~2-microglobulin (~2m). Formation of this trimolecular complex is a prerequisite for e~

A review of the genetics of type I diabetes

open access: yesExploration of Immunology
Type I diabetes susceptibility is caused by both environmental and genetic factors, the latter comprising approximately half of the total risk as evidenced by the fact that identical twins have approximately 50% concordance, suggesting 50% of the disease

High expression of HLA-E in colorectal carcinoma is associated with a favorable prognosis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2011
Background Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-E is a non-classical class I HLA molecule that can be stabilized by ligands donated by other classical (HLA-A, -B, -C) and non-classical (HLA-G) family members.

Behaviour of non-donor specific antibodies during rapid re-synthesis of donor specific HLA antibodies after antibody incompatible renal transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: HLA directed antibodies play an important role in acute and chronic allograft rejection. During viral infection of a patient with HLA antibodies, the HLA antibody levels may rise even though there is no new immunization with antigen ...

Replication of the association of HLA-B7 with Alzheimer's disease: a role for homozygosity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: There are reasons to expect an association with Alzheimer's disease (AD) within the HLA region. The HLA-B & C genes have, however, been relatively understudied.

Brain Correlates of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Protection in Gulf War Illness (GWI)

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Background: We recently reported that six alleles from class II genes of the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) confer protection from Gulf War Illness (GWI) (Georgopoulos et al., 2015).

Recognition of Human Histocompatibility Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-E Complexed with HLA Class I Signal Sequence–derived Peptides by D94/NKG2 Confers Protection from Natural Killer Cell–mediated Lysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-E is a nonclassical HLA class I molecule, the gene for which is transcribed in most tissues. It has recently been reported that this molecule binds peptides derived from the signal sequence of HLA class I ...

Non-HLA Antibodies in Kidney Transplantation: Pathogenesis, Clinical Impact, and Management Approaches

open access: yesTransplantology
Antibody-mediated rejection is a critical factor in acute and chronic allograft rejection, with Human Leukocyte Antigen as the primary target of the humoral immune response in kidney transplants.

The Dynamics of the Human Leukocyte Antigen Head Domain Modulates Its Recognition by the T-Cell Receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Generating the immune response requires the discrimination of peptides presented by the human leukocyte antigen complex (HLA) through the T-cell receptor (TCR).
