  • Title: Equine leucocyte antigen system: progress and potential.
    Author: Matthews SM.
    Journal: Equine Vet J; 1985 Jul; 17(4):265-8. PubMed ID: 3908093.
    Abstract:
    Leucocyte antigens are cell-surface glycoproteins, the structure of which is under the genetic control of a chromosome region called the major histocompatibility complex. Progress in the study of the equine leucocyte antigen (ELA) system has been achieved in two ways; first by the fact that the ELA system is intensively investigated in different laboratories all over the world and parallels can be drawn to the information gained from research in more extensively studied species, and secondly by the collaborative efforts of the participants in three international workshops. The potential applications of the ELA system and areas of further investigation are discussed.
