Abstract excerpt

Recent evidence indicates that HLA-C molecules are biologically relevant by eliciting T-cell responses and exerting control over NK cell function. In addition, HLA-C is associated with susceptibility to various diseases, notably psoriasis vulgaris. Clarification of the full biological roles for H...
