MHC

Major Histocompatibility Complex; MHC

MHC is a group of genes encoding proteins which are transferred to the cell surfaces to present the intracellular or extracellular, self or non-self antigens to the cells of the immune system, thereby helping T cells in differentiating self from non-self proteins, and initiating adaptive immune responses. MHC can be divided into 3 subtypes, MHC I, MHC II and MHC III, in which MHC I presents endogenous antigens (such as antigens produced by virus-infected cells or tumor cells) to activate cytotoxic T cells (CD8+ T cells); MHC II presents exogenous antigens (such as bacteria or parasites) to activate helper T cells (CD4+ T cells); MHC III does not directly participate in antigen presentation, but involves in immune regulation, inflammatory response and cell signaling. MHC is crucial for stem cell transplant (SCT), and could lead to graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)^[1]^[2].

H2-D b restricted epitopes VSV Nucleoprotein (52-59)
H2-D b restricted epitopes VSV Nucleoprotein (52-59) is a 9-mer peptide derived from the nucleoprotein of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV). H2-D b restricted epitopes VSV Nucleoprotein (52-59) binds to MHC class I molecules and presents itself to CD8+ T cells, thereby activating cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), which can recognize and kill cells expressing the corresponding antigen. H2-D b restricted epitopes VSV Nucleoprotein (52-59) can be used in the development of CTL vaccines against Ebola virus.

M133 peptide
M133 peptide is a coronavirus-specific CD4 T cell epitope. M133 peptide is immunodominant in mice infected with the neurotropic coronavirus (the JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus). M133 peptide forms a complex with MHC II molecules, which is recognized by specific TCRs, thereby activating CD4 T cells.
