- Human leukocyte antigen - Wikipedia
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system is a complex of genes on chromosome 6 in humans that encode cell-surface proteins responsible for regulation of the immune system [1] The HLA system is also known as the human version of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) found in many animals [2]
- What is HLA? HLA Basics, Typing Matching Overview | NMDP
Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are proteins found on most cells in the human body Your immune system uses HLA to identify which cells belong in your body and which do not Doctors use HLA typing to match blood stem cell donors with patients, but it’s not as simple as it sounds
- Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) System - The Merck Manuals
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system (the major histocompatibility complex [MHC] in humans) is an important part of the immune system and is controlled by genes located on chromosome 6
- Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) | Major Histocompatibility Complex . . .
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA), any of numerous antigens involved in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans The HLA genes, of which more than 200 are known, encode the cell-surface proteins of the MHC Variability in HLA genes serves a critical role in adaptive immunity
- HLA Antibody - University of Rochester Medical Center
This test checks your blood for antibodies against a cell marker called a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) The test is done if you need an organ transplant, to help find a donor organ that will work in your body
- Histocompatibility or HLA Testing: What You Need to Know | UPMC
The HLA is a group of genes within human DNA that makes special proteins called human leukocyte antigens (HLA) They are present on the surface of various cells throughout the body The proteins signal to the immune system that a cell is part of the body and shouldn’t attack it
- Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) | Caris Life Sciences
Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) is a group of related proteins that are encoded by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes in humans These cell-surface proteins are responsible for the regulation of the immune system
- Biochemistry, HLA Antigens - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are genes in major histocompatibility complexes (MHC) that help code for proteins that differentiate between self and non-self They play a significant role in disease and immune defense They are beneficial to the immune system but can also have detrimental effects
