Biochem/physiol Actions

Major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) plays a vital role in initiating immune response by presenting peptides derived from extracellular pathogens to T cells bearing the CD4 marker. Mutations in the gene increase the risk of susceptibility to autoimmune diseases such as diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis and pemphigus vulgaris.

General description

Major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) is specifically localized on antigen presenting cells, such as macrophages, dendritic cells and B cells. MHC class II are classified in to two types classical and non- classical MHC class II molecules. In humans, there are three classical class II molecules HLA-DP, -DQ and –DR and two non-classical molecules, namely HLA-DM and –DO.

The rat monoclonal antibody M5/114 reacts with murine MHC class II glycoproteins. It recognizes a shared determinant on I-Ab, I-Ad, I-Aq, and I-Ed, I-Ek alloantigens, but it does not react with I-Af, I-Ak, I-As. This antibody can inhibit I-A-restricted T cell responses of the H-2b, H-2d, H-2q, H-2u but not H-2f, H-2k, H-2s haplotypes.
