MHC variation and tissue transplantation in fish.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Cardwell T N, Sheffer R J, Hedrick P W

Abstract excerpt

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes were originally discovered because of their role in tissue rejection in mammals and have subsequently been implicated in the incidence of autoimmune diseases and resistance to infectious diseases. Here we present the first demonstration that a gene defined by molecular sequence in the fish MHC, specifically a class II locus, plays an important role in tissue rejection....
