PartⅠ Several important concepts

• Transplantation antigen(Histocompatibility antigen): Antigens which cause immune response to the graft and determine the survival of the graft.They are alloantigen which is specific for each individual.

Page 4: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

• MHS(Major histocompatibility antigen system ) :

A group of complex histocompatibility antigens which cause rapid and strong immunoreaction to the graft.

• mHS(Minor histocompatibility antigen system) :

A group of complex histocompatibility antigens which cause slow and weak immunoreaction to the graft.

Page 5: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

• MHC (Major histocompatibility complex) : A large cluster of linked genes located in so

me chromosome of human or other mammals encode for MHS and relate to allograft rejection, immune response, immune regulation and cell-cell recognition.

Page 6: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

• HLA (Human leucocyte antigen) : The MHS of human which is associated with allog

raft rejection, immune response, immune regulation and cell-cell recognition.

• HLA complex : The MHC of human,a cluster of the genes which e

ncode for HLA and relate to allograft rejection immune response, immune regulation and cell-c

ell recognition.

Page 21: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

2. Polymorphism Polymorphism means there are multiple alleles at

a gene locus of MHC in a population so that an individual may have variant allele.

------multiple allele ------codominance: The two alleles at a gene locus

of MHC in the two homogenous chromosomes are expressed together.

Page 24: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

3. Linkage disequilibrium• The distribution of haplotypes is not random in a

population. • The probability in which two or more than two al

leles present together in one chromosome is greater than the probability in which they present randomly.

PartⅤ Interaction between MHC molecule and antigenic peptide

Class II MHC molecule-antigenic peptide complex

Class I MHC molecule -antigenic peptide complex

Page 42: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Ⅰ. Molecular basis of interaction between MHC molecule and

antigenic peptide

Page 43: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Anchor sites: Two or more sites on antigenic peptide bind to “groove” or “pocket” of MHC molecules.

Anchor residues: The amino acid residues on anchor sites of antigenic peptide.

Interaction between MHC and antigen

Page 44: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Certain MHC molecule binds the corresponding anchor residue of antigenic peptides.

Antigenic peptides which can combine with

the same kind of MHC molecule have same or similar anchor sites and anchor residues

(consensus motif).

Interaction between MHC and antigen

Page 46: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)
Page 47: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Ⅱ. Characteristics of interaction

Relative specificity (1) Specificity: Certain MHC molecule recognizes

corresponding consensus motif (2) Flexibility: Amino acids “x” and anchor residues are

variable Different MHC molecules can recognize

similar consensus motif

Page 48: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

MHC restriction: T cell only recognize antigenic peptide co

mbining with MHC molecules. That is to say, interaction of T cell and an

tigen-presenting cell(APC) or target cell need restriction by MHC molecules.

Page 49: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Interaction of Th(CD4+T) cell and antigen-presenting cell (APC) is restricted by class Ⅱ molecules.

Interaction of Tc(CD8+T) cell and antigen-presenting cell (APC) or target cell is restricted by class Ⅰ molecules.

PartⅥ Biological functions of MHC

1.Induce the differentiation and maturation of T cell to form functional T cell repertoire

2.Present antigen to initiate immune response

Page 53: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

1.Induce the differentiation of T cell to form T cell repertoire

Page 54: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

2. Present antigen to initiate immune response

Endogenous antigen: antigens synthesized within cells

Exogenous antigen: antigens comes outside the cell

Endogenous Ag is presented to CD8+ T cell by MHC class Ⅰ molecule

Exogenous Ag is presented to CD4+ T cell by MHC class Ⅱ molecule

PartⅦ Application of HLA in medicine

HLA and transplantation

Page 58: Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) Chapter 9 Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)

Mixed lymphocyte reaction to determine identity of class II HLA antigens between a potential donor and recipient. Lymphocytes from the donor are irradiated or treated with mitomycin C. If the class II antigens on the two cell populations are different, the recipient cells will divide rapidly and take up large quantities of radioactive nucleotides into the newly synthesized nuclear DNA. The amount of radioactive nucleotide uptake is roughly proportionate to the MHC class II differences between the donor and recipient lymphocytes.
