Effects of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR engagement on melanoma cells.
Melanoma cells often display constitutive expression of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules which is associated with a higher metastatic dissemination. The MHC class II molecules during T cell/ professional antigen-presenting cell (APC) interactions are localized, as signalling receptors, into membrane lipid rafts which are thought to be sites of signalling complex ass...
متن کاملStudies on the human leukocyte antigen-DR in patients with endometriosis: genotyping of HLA-DRB1 alleles.
BACKGROUND An increasing number of reports suggest that endometriosis is associated with abnormal immune function involving changes in both cell-mediated and humoral immunity, although the aetiology of the disease remains undefined. The human leukocyte antigen system (HLA) is known to play a role in the aetiology of a number of diseases. This study examines the possible association between the ...
متن کاملAnalysis of human leukocyte antigen HLA-DR beta amino acid sequence in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome.
Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKH) is a systemic disorder involving many organ systems, including the eye, the ear, the skin, and the meninges. One of the important clinical features of the disease is its strong association with histocompatibility antigens HLA-DR4 and HLA-Dw15. To investigate this association at the DNA level, the polymerase chain reaction technique was used. The DR beta 1 DNA...
متن کاملFunctional interaction between human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II and mouse CD4 molecule in antigen recognition by T cells in HLA-DR and DQ transgenic mice
Studies in vitro have suggested that a species barrier exists in functional interaction between human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II and mouse CD4 molecules. However, whether mouse CD4+ T cells restricted by HLA class II molecules are generated in HLA class II transgenic mice and respond to peptide antigens across this barrier has remained unclear. In an analysis of T cell ...
متن کاملP-145: Role of Human Leukocyte Antigen in Miscarriage
Background: During pregnancy, the maternal immune system is in close contact with cells and tissue from the semiallogenic fetus .The human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class Ib molecules, HLA-E, -F and -G, are expressed at the materno-fetal interface. Because of the apparent immunoregulatory functions of these proteins, they may be involved in successful acceptance of the semi-allogenic fetus during...
