Metal-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 ...

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: Disease Associations
Human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) alleles can be used as markers for a wide variety of autoimmune and other disorders. The interpretation of and possible bases for these associations can be considered in relation to conserved extended MHC haplotypes (CEHs). The latter are fixed stretches of up to several million base pairs of genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). CEHs constitute at le...
