Environmental factors and the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are involved in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). However, MHC type (H2haplotype) of AD model mice NC/Nga is poorly understood. Alloreactive CD8+or CD4+T cells in NC/Nga strongly responded to each antigen-presenting cells (A/J: H-2a, C57BL/6: H-2b, BALB/c: H-2d, or C3H/HeJ: H-2k), suggesting that NC/Nga has otherH2haplotype. Polymorphic microsatellite (CA)nrepeats in TNF-α gene differ based on theH2haplotype at present. NC/Nga’s (CA)nrepeats (n= 19) were different from other examined strains, A/J (n= 14), BALB/c (n= 14), C3H/HeJ (n= 16), and C57BL/6 (n= 20). Using flow cytometry and genotyping, we demonstrated the NC/Nga H2 haplotype had a unique phenotype (Kd, I-Ak, and I-Ek) in which Ddand Ldlacked as protein despite sensitive mRNA detection. The loss of Ddand Ldwas caused by forming a unique Ddm7/Ldm7-hybrid mutant (D/Ldm7). We propose to call this novelH2haplotype the “H-2nc,” and provide the important information regarding the AD research using NC/Nga mice.
