Predicting Odor Pleasantness with an Electronic Nose
A primary goal for artificial nose (eNose) technology is to report perceptual qualities of novel odors. Currently, however, eNoses primarily detect and discriminate between odorants they previously "learned". We tuned an eNose to human odor pleasantness estimates. We then used the eNose to predict the pleasantness of novel odorants, and tested these predictions in naïve subjects who had not par...
متن کاملThe major histocompatibility complex.
The major histocompatibility complex on the sixth chromosome controls expression of a complex series of cell surface antigens which comprise the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system. These markers, beyond their importance in human organ transplantation, have been demonstrated to occur with an increased prevalence in certain disease states. The group of conditions showing the closest association...
متن کاملPorcine major histocompatibility complex.
The major histocompatibility complex in swine (swine leucocyte antigen: SLA) is located on chromosome 7 with the class I and class III regions separated by the centromere from the class II region. The overall molecular organisation of the class I and III regions is well known, but further research is needed to establish that of the class II region. Approximately sixty genes have been characteri...
متن کاملMajor histocompatibility complex-dependent susceptibility to Cryptococcus neoformans in mice.
To evaluate the role of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes in the resistance to Cryptococcus neoformans, we conducted infection experiments in MHC-congenic strains of mice. Significant MHC-dependent susceptibility differences were found among homozygotes and heterozygotes. This study is the first experimental demonstration of MHC-dependent susceptibility to C. neoformans infections in...
متن کاملMetal-derivatized Major Histocompatibility Complex
One of the prices we pay for our love of jewelry is allergic contact hypersensitivity to metal, an autoimmune condition that variably afflicts around 10% of all Caucasians (1). Contact hypersensitivity is a classic type IV DTH (delayed type hypersensitivity) response, involving primed T cells that are specific for metal modified antigens generated at a local site in the body (most commonly the ...
