Evidence for major histocompatibility complex restriction in transplantation immunity.
Studies on the survival of histocompatibility-Y antigen (H-Y)-incompatible and skin-specific antigen (Skn)-incompatible skin grafts in mice, as well as those concerned with the survival of cultured parathyroid allografts in rats, indicate that grafts provoke a strong immune response only if they include donor macrophages (or Langerhans cells) or if major histocompatibility complex-compatible ma...
متن کاملThe Major Histocompatibility Complex in Transplantation
The transplant of organs is one of the greatest therapeutic achievements of the twentieth century. In organ transplantation, the adaptive immunity is considered the main response exerted to the transplanted tissue, since the principal target of the immune response is the MHC (major histocompatibility complex) molecules expressed on the surface of donor cells. However, we should not forget that ...
متن کاملMajor histocompatibility complex (MHC) restriction of foreign transplantation antigens in rats rendered tolerant at birth
Evidence is presented that MHC restriction of foreign transplantation antigens occurs when tolerance is induced. Whereas PVG and F344 rats rendered tolerant at birth with (DA X PVG)F1 and (DA X F344)F1 hybrid bone marrow cells (BMC), respectively, accept ACI skin grafts, presumably because the foreign transplantation antigens of these third party grafts, which are MHC-compatible with DA, are re...
متن کاملTransplantation of metanephroi across the major histocompatibility complex in rats.
To determine whether transplanted metanephroi grow, differentiate, and function in hosts that differ in major histocompatibility complex loci (RT1 loci in rats) from donors in a defined way, we implanted metanephroi from embryonic day (E) 15 PVG (RT1(c)) rat embryos into the omentum of nonimmunosupressed uninephrectomized PVG-RT1(avl) (host) rats. By 4 wk posttransplantation, metanephroi had gr...
متن کاملAn ontology for major histocompatibility restriction
BACKGROUND MHC molecules are a highly diverse family of proteins that play a key role in cellular immune recognition. Over time, different techniques and terminologies have been developed to identify the specific type(s) of MHC molecule involved in a specific immune recognition context. No consistent nomenclature exists across different vertebrate species. PURPOSE To correctly represent MHC r...
