  • Title: The genetics of cell-mediated lympholysis.
    Author: Long MA, Handwerger BS, Amos DB, Yunis EJ.
    Journal: J Immunol; 1976 Dec; 117(6):2092-9. PubMed ID: 62806.
    Abstract:
    The role of HLA antigens in the generation of cytotoxic cells in CML has been investigated. Cytotoxic effector cells were generated in MLC among HLA-A or HLA-A and HLA-B disparate, HLA-D identical siblings, and among HLA-A and HLA-B disparate, MLC identical (%RR less than or equal to 2 3.6) unrelated individual. The data indicate that HLA-D differences and poliferative MLC responses as measured by 3H-thymidine incorporation are not requisite for the in vitro generation of cytotoxic cells and suggest the existence of a CML-S locus (loci) distinct from HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-D. The degree of cytotoxicity generated in a proliferative versus a "nonproliferative" MLC was comparable. In addition, these studies demonstrate that antigens other than the currently definable HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, and HLA-D can serve as target determinants in cell-mediated lympholysis.
