HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles are the strongest genetic determinants for autoantibody positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). One of the key regulators in expression of HLA class II receptors is MHC class II transactivator (CIITA). A variant of the CIITA gene has been found to associate with inflammatory diseases.We wanted to explore whether the risk variant rs3087456 in the CIITA gene inter...
The specificity and potency of the immune system make immunotherapy a potential strategy for the treatment of cancer. To exploit this potential, we have developed cell-based cancer vaccines consisting of tumor cells expressing syngeneic MHC class II and costimulatory molecules. The vaccines mediate tumor regression in mice and activate human CD4+ T cells in vitro. Previous vaccines were generat...
For multiple sclerosis, genome wide association studies and follow up studies have identified susceptibility single nucleotide polymorphisms located in or near CLEC16A at chromosome 16p13.13, encompassing among others CIITA, DEXI and SOCS1 in addition to CLEC16A. These genetic variants are located in intronic or intergenic regions and display strong linkage disequilibrium with each other, compl...
The class II transactivator (CIITA) is a transcriptional co-activator regulating the constitutive and interferon-gamma-inducible expression of class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and related genes. Promoter remodeling occurs following CIITA induction, suggesting the involvement of chromatin remodeling factors. Transcription of numerous genes requires the histone acetyltransferase (H...
Decreased major histocompatibility class II (MHCII) expression is associated with poor survival in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Immune-privileged site DLBCL (IP-DLBCL) patients reportedly have frequent large deletions at the MHCII locus whereas the mechanism of decreased expression in non-IP-DLBCL is unknown. Gene expression profiling data were used for correlation analyses between ex...
Cell surface expression of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) molecules is increased during the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs). This enhances their ability to present antigen and activate naive CD4(+) T cells. In contrast to increased cell surface MHCII expression, de novo biosynthesis of MHCII mRNA is turned off during DC maturation. We show here that this is due to a remar...
Major histocompatibility complex class II molecules (MHC-II), which present exogenous antigens to CD4+ T-lymphocytes, play an essential role in the initiation of the antigen-specific immune response. MHC-II is expressed in antigen presenting cells (APCs) including B cells, monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). MHCII is constitutively expressed on resting/immature APCs at a relativel...
The class II transactivator (CIITA) and B cell octamer-binding protein 1/octamer-binding factor 1/Oct coactivator from B cells (Bob1/OBF-1/OCA-B) represent two B cell-specific transcriptional coactivators. CIITA and Bob1 interact with proteins that bind to conserved upstream sequences in promoters of class II major histocompatibility genes and octamer-binding transcription factors Oct-1 and Oct...
Loss of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) gene expression was associated with poor outcome in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in several studies. The mechanism for lost expression is unknown. MHCII gene expression is controlled by several transcription factors, including RFX (composed of RFXB, RFX5, and RFXAP), CREB, and NF-Y. These transcription factors interact with a ma...
Gene activation in early development is highly dependent on precise concentrations of trans-acting factors for the activation of different genes at differing points in the embryo. Thus, not only is the presence or absence of a particular trans-activator or repressor relevant in determining gene activation, but also the concentration of the regulatory protein must be above or below a certain thr...
