Modulation of Ly49A+ Natural Killer Cell Licensing by Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I Alleles
… lymphocytes that react to cells lacking self-MHC: major histocompatibility complex) class I molecules, such as transformed or virally infected host cells and allogeneic bone marrow. This reactivity is mediated by inhibitory receptors for MHC class I that block the ability of activation …

Variabilidade genética no Complexo Principal de Histocompatibilidade (MHC) de três espécies de mamíferos marinhos da costa do Rio grande do Sul
O MHC (Major Histocompatibility Complex) é um sistema genético importante para a manutenção de espécies ameaçadas, uma vez que baixa variabilidade para locos MHC tem sido associada a uma menor capacidade de resposta a doenças e diminuição do sucesso reprodutivo. Deste modo, pesquisas sobre a …

Local adaptation to parasites and selection on major histocompatibility genes in ecologically divergent populations of three-spine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus)
… and three I set out to test whether variation major histocompatibility (MHC) genes can underly such local adaptation in stickleback. MHC genes are important components of vertebrate immunity; however, there is little direct empirical support for spatially divergent selection driving local …

The Major Histocompatibility Complex in Rabbits
… evolutionary processes as they take place. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a key component of the immune system’s response to both fight disease and maintain health. Present in all jawed vertebrates, the MHC has played a key role in immunocompetence for over 400 million years. Its …
