| HLA-a2 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the a locus on chromosome 6. The HLA-a2 antigen is associated with recognition of the influenza a virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| HLA-a3 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the a locus on chromosome 6. The allele occurs with increased frequency in individuals with idiopathic haemochromatosis. HLA-a3 is in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-b7 and HLA-dr2. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-b27 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the b locus on chromosome 6. It is strongly associated with acute anterior uveitis, ankylosing spondylitis, and reiter's disease. Increased frequency of antigen in: ankylosing spondylitis (90%), Reiter syndrome (90%), enteropathic arthritis (75%), psoriatic arthritis (60%) normal frequency: white: 8%, black: 4% (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-b35 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the b locus on chromosome 6. It is weakly associated with a number of diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-b7 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the b locus on chromosome 6. There is a weak association between the presence of the HLA-b7 antigen and the diseases of narcolepsy and idiopathic haemochromatosis. HLA-b7 is in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-a3 and HLA-dr2. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-b8 antigen | <immunology> Human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigen encoded by the b locus on chromosome 6. It is in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-a1 and HLA-dr3. This explains the fact that though HLA-b8 was originally associated with several diseases, including coeliac disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, and myasthenia gravis, their association with HLA-dr3 is now considered more significant. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr1 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr2 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. It is in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-a3 and HLA-b7 and is strongly associated with goodpasture syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and narcolepsy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr3 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. It is in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-a1 and HLA-b8. The HLA-dr3 antigen is strongly associated with coeliac disease, grave's disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, early-age onset myasthenia gravis, systemic lupus erythematosus, juvenile diabetes, and opportunistic infections in aids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr4 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. It is strongly associated with rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile diabetes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr5 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d-locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. It is associated with kaposi sarcoma in aids and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr6 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HLA-dr7 antigen | <immunology> Human immune-response, d-related antigen encoded by the d locus on chromosome 6 and found on lymphoid cells. It is strongly associated with coeliac disease and psoriasis vulgaris. (12 Dec 1998) |
| homologous antigen | <immunology> A homologous antigen is one which will attract and react with a specific antibody. (09 Oct 1997) |
| self antigen | <immunology> The antigens of an organisms own cells and cell products are self antigens to the immune system of that organisn. Clones of immune cells reactive with self antigens are normally eliminated. (18 Nov 1997) |
