Five HLA probes, one corresponding to class I genes, two corresponding to distinct class II light chain genes, DR beta and DQ beta, and two to class II heavy chain genes, DR alpha and DQ alpha, were used to analyse the genomic DNA of the pig. Three informative SLA typed families and four SLA recombinants were studied by Southern blot analysis. About 16 restriction fragments, generated by EcoR1 or Hind III endonucleases, were revealed for each individual, either with the class I probe or the DR beta probe. The number of restriction fragments which hybridized with the other probes was generally lower. Several restriction fragment-length polymorphisms were found and these segregated with SLA haplotypes. The studies on SLA recombinants showed that SLA DR beta- and DQ alpha-like genes are probably tightly clustered within the SLA-D-MLR region. 相似文献

Rabbit major histocompatibility complex. IV. Expression of major histocompatibility complex class II genes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The rabbit MHC class II DP, DQ, and DR alpha and beta chain genes were transfected into murine B lymphoma cells. The transfected cells expressed R-DQ and R-DR molecules on the cell surface but they did not express the R-DP genes either on the cell surface or at the level of mRNA. Northern blot analyses showed that the R-DP genes were expressed, albeit at low levels, in rabbit spleen. Similar analyses showed that the R-DQ and R-DR genes were expressed at high levels in rabbit spleen. A new monoclonal anti-rabbit class II antibody, RDR34, has been developed and shown to react with the R-DR transfected cells and not with the R-DQ transfected cells. The previously described monoclonal anti-rabbit class II antibody, 2C4, reacted with the R-DQ transfected cells and not with the R-DR transfected cells. Thus, 2C4 and RDR34 MAb's are specific for the R-DQ and R-DR molecules, respectively. Each of the antibodies reacted with approximately 50% of rabbit spleen cells as shown by immunofluorescent antibody studies. 相似文献

Different cDNA clones have been isolated that encode each of the three chains of HLA-DR antigens: alpha, intermediate and beta, as well as another beta chain, most likely DC. Whereas the DR alpha and intermediate chains seem encoded by single genes, the DR and DC beta chains are most likely encoded by multiple genes; furthermore, their polymorphism can be readily detected by restriction analysis of cellular DNA. Several genomic DNA clones were isolated for the DR and DC beta chain genes and for the intermediate chain gene. The sum of all distinct cDNA clones and genomic DNA clones for HLA-DR beta chains, isolated from a heterozygous cell line, represent five genes. This implies the existence of at least three nonallelic DR beta chain genes in addition to the DC beta chain genes. The complete sequence of one of the DR beta chains is presented. A genomic DNA clone for a DR beta chain was transferred into mouse L cells and found to be expressed into RNA of the same size as DR beta mRNA. The finding, among the genes for class II antigens, of multiple genes for the beta chain of HLA-DR, distinct from those of other known subregions such as DC, emphasizes the importance of gene transfer experiments, where individual genes can be expressed and tested for their functional role in the immune response. 相似文献

The swine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) or swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) complex is one of the most gene-dense regions in the swine genome. It consists of three major gene clusters, the SLA class I, class III and class II regions, that span approximately 1.1, 0.7 and 0.5Mb, respectively, making the swine MHC the smallest among mammalian MHC so far examined and the only one known to span the centromere. This review summarizes recent updates to the Immuno Polymorphism Database-MHC (IPD-MHC) website (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ipd/mhc/sla/) which serves as the repository for maintaining a list of all SLA recognized genes and their allelic sequences. It reviews the expression of SLA proteins on cell subsets and their role in antigen presentation and regulating immune responses. It concludes by discussing the role of SLA genes in swine models of transplantation, xenotransplantation, cancer and allergy and in swine production traits and responses to infectious disease and vaccines. 相似文献

Information about genetic variation within the canine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II genes is limited. In common with most other vertebrate species the canine MHC, or DLA, includes genes which are homologous to human DR, DQ, and DP. Recently, at least one functional DLA DQ gene-pair has been characterized, but so far systematic screening efforts have been lacking. In the present study, we sequenced both cDNA and genomic clones derived from DLA DQ genes of Irish setter dogs. This breed was of interest, since it shows a high prevalence of gluten sensitive enteropathy (GSE), which may be a useful animal model for celiac disease (CD) of man. Interestingly, few of the alleles found in Irish setters were identical to those previously detected in other breeds. Three novel DLA DQA and four novel DLA DQB alleles were discovered in 19 unrelated dogs. Strong association between certain HLA DQ alleles and CD of man prompted us to screen the DQ alleles of members of a family of gluten-sensitive Irish setter dogs. No haplotypes or alleles were shared by all affected dogs, but one frequent haplo-type in this family was also detected in an unrelated gluten-sensitive Irish setter; this haplotype was absent in the healthy dogs. This observation warrants further investigation by screening the DQ alleles of a large population of unrelated gluten-sensitive Irish setters. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze major histocompatibility complex expression in the muscle fibers of juvenile and adult dermatomyositis.METHOD:
In total, 28 untreated adult dermatomyositis patients, 28 juvenile dermatomyositis patients (Bohan and Peter''s criteria) and a control group consisting of four dystrophic and five Pompe''s disease patients were analyzed. Routine histological and immunohistochemical (major histocompatibility complex I and II, StreptoABComplex/HRP, Dakopatts) analyses were performed on serial frozen muscle sections. Inflammatory cells, fiber damage, perifascicular atrophy and increased connective tissue were analyzed relative to the expression of major histocompatibility complexes I and II, which were assessed as negatively or positively stained fibers in 10 fields (200X).RESULTS:
The mean ages at disease onset were 42.0±15.9 and 7.3±3.4 years in adult and juvenile dermatomyositis, respectively, and the symptom durations before muscle biopsy were similar in both groups. No significant differences were observed regarding gender, ethnicity and frequency of organ involvement, except for higher creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase levels in adult dermatomyositis (p<0.050). Moreover, a significantly higher frequency of major histocompatibility complex I (96.4% vs. 50.0%, p<0.001) compared with major histocompatibility complex II expression (14.3% vs. 53.6%, p = 0.004) was observed in juvenile dermatomyositis. Fiber damage (p = 0.006) and increased connective tissue (p<0.001) were significantly higher in adult dermatomyositis compared with the presence of perifascicular atrophy (p<0.001). The results of the histochemical and histological data did not correlate with the demographic data or with the clinical and laboratory features.CONCLUSION:
The overexpression of major histocompatibility complex I was an important finding for the diagnosis of both groups, particularly for juvenile dermatomyositis, whereas there was lower levels of expression of major histocompatibility complex II than major histocompatibility complex I. This finding was particularly apparent in juvenile dermatomyositis. 相似文献13.
Molecular genetic studies on DNA polymorphism of the HLA class II genes associated with human longevity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Okinawan Japanese are well known for their longevity; the population rate of centenarians in Okinawa is about 3.8 times higher than that of the whole Japan, where the average life expectancies both among men and among women are the highest in the world. In this study, we analyzed HLA class II alleles of Okinawan centenarians by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method for the purpose of clarifying the presence of primary genetic factors in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region associated with human longevity. DRB1*1401, DQB1*0503, DQA1*0101=0104 and DQA1*05 were significantly increased in the centenarians. The significant increase of HLA-DQB 1*0503 and/or DQA 1*0101=0104 in the centenarians can be explained by a linkage disequilibrium with DRB 1*1401, or vice versa. Further, the tendency was observed toward increase with respect to DRB 1*0101 and DRB1*1201. These data suggest that several alleles of the HLA-DRB1 and/or HLA-DQ genes are involved in human longevity. 相似文献

Anal furunculosis (AF) is a chronic, progressive inflammatory disease of the perianal tissues most frequently affecting middle-aged or older German Shepherd dogs (GSD). Because this breed accounts for over 80% of all reported cases, there is likely to be a genetic association with disease susceptibility. Although there are some similarities with perianal fistulation that occurs in human Crohn's disease, the aetiology and pathogenesis of AF are still poorly understood. Recent research has suggested an immune-mediated aetiology, and evidence for this has been further provided by clinical responses to the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin. The aim of the current study was to investigate canine major histocompatibility complex immune response genes. Dog leucocyte antigen class II alleles and haplotypes were characterised by sequence-based typing of 107 GSD affected with AF and 196 breed-matched controls collected in the UK. A highly significant association of DLA-DRB1*00101 with the presence of AF was observed (OR = 5.01, CI = 2.7-9.3, P < 0.00000001). This association was confirmed in a second cohort of GSD collected in Finland. Homozygosity for this allele is associated with an earlier disease onset. 相似文献

Molecular mechanisms of class I major histocompatibility complex antigen processing and presentation
The presentation of antigenic peptides by class I major histocompatibility complex molecules plays a central role in the cellular immune response, since immune surveillance for detection of viral infections or malignant transformations is achieved by CD8+ T lymphocytes which inspect peptides, derived from intracellular proteins, bind to class I molecules on the surface of most cells. The transporter associated with antigen processing selectively translocates cytoplasmically derived peptides of appropriate sequence and length into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum where they associate with newly synthesized class I molecules. The translocated peptides are generated by multicatalytic and multisubunit proteasomes which degrade cytoplasmic proteins in a ATP-ubiquitin-dependent manner. This review discusses our current molecular understanding of class I antigen processing and presentation. 相似文献

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVI) is a heterogeneous condition characterized by arrest in B cell differentiation. A high frequency of null alleles of the C4 gene has been reported in patients with this disorder. We investigated the restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) of the MHC class II genes HLA-DRB, DQA, and DQB, the class III gene C4 and the tumour necrosis factor-alpha) (TNF-alpha) gene in 40 Caucasian patients. The results showed an increase in HLA-DR3 in patients (40% vs 30.5%), but, more significantly, there was a striking increase in the number of CVI patients who carried a deletion of the C4A gene (46% vs 25%). In both patients and controls there was strong allelic association between HLA-DR3 and C4A deletion, and HLA-DR3 and TNF-alpha. Our results suggest that genes present on an extended haplotype containing these three polymorphisms contribute to genetic susceptibility to CVI. 相似文献

To investigate the role of interleukin (IL)-4 during the triggering of collagen-induced arthritis, we examined the effects of the I-Ab and I-E protective/suppressive genes and passively administered anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody. In contrast to the action of I-E expression on its own, which has mainly a suppressive effect post-triggering, the combination of I-Ab and I-E had a marked protective effect. Assuming, on the basis of previous experience with the I-Ab allele, that it might act through suppressing early IL-4 production, we treated mice with the 11B11 IL-4-neutralizing antibody around the time of initial immunization with collagen. Treatment over a period extending to 6 days post-immunization exacerbated the arthritis, but when curtailed to 2 days post-immunization (and tested in pristane-primed animals), the disease was reduced. We conclude that IL-4 plays an essential role in triggering the disease. 相似文献

Sequence of the canine major histocompatibility complex region containing non-classical class I genes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Abstract: We have sequenced a segment of 150,102 nucleotides of canine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) DNA, corresponding to the junction of the class I and class III regions. The distal portion contained five class III genes including two tumor necrosis factor genes and the proximal portion contained five genes or pseudogenes belonging to the class I region. The order of the class III region genes was conserved as in the porcine and human MHC regions. The order of the class Ib loci from the proximal side outwards was DLA-53, DLA-12a, DLA-64, stress-induced phosphoprotein-1, followed by DLA-12. Only DLA-64 and DLA-12 display an overall predicted protein sequence compatible with the expression of membrane-anchored glycoproteins. The other class 1b loci do not appear to be functional by sequence analysis. In all, these 10 genes spanned 24% of the total sequence. The remaining 76% comprised of a number of non-coding and repetitive DNA elements including long interspersed nuclear element (LINE) fragments, short interspersed nuclear elements (SINE), and microsatellites. 相似文献
