Antigen Presentation-Independent Reciprocal Immune Modulation by <i>HLA-DRB1</i> Allelic Epitopes that Associate with Autoimmune Disease Risk or Protection
2020-08-25
Abstract excerpt
Statistical associations between particular human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles and susceptibility to - or protection from - autoimmune diseases have been long observed. Allele-specific antigen presentation (AP) has been widely proposed as a culprit mechanism; however, direct evidence to substantiate that hypothesis is scant. Here we demonstrate AP-independent differential macrophage activation by HLA-DRB1 alle...
