Canine Histocompatibility Typing

核心B：犬组织相容性分型 犬组织相容性分型核心是为了满足两种犬研究的需要而设计的 项目1和2在这个计划项目补助金。核心人员包括一名核心主任、一名工作人员、一名 一名科学家和一名技术员。该服务的主要作用包括犬组织相容性分型， 鉴定用于造血细胞移植犬白细胞抗原（DLA）相同的同窝出生对， 选择具有所需组织相容性类型的犬对进行繁殖。这些努力至关重要， 狗作为人类造血细胞移植的转化模型。当打字时 努力集中在两个最多态的I类和II类基因座，DLA-88和DRB 1，额外的努力 将涉及开发用于分型3个额外的多等位基因DLA I类基因座的方法。该核心还将 产生树突状细胞，开发用于表达选定的I类DLA的遗传修饰的K562细胞系 等位基因，并开发用于次要抗原特异性T细胞鉴定和表征的四聚体。

CORE B: CANINE HISTOCOMPATIBILITY TYPING The Canine Histocompatibility Typing Core is designed to meet the needs of the two canine research Projects 1 and 2 on this Program Project Grant. The Core personnel consist of a Core Director, a Staff Scientist, and one technician. The primary role of the service consists of canine histocompatibility typing to identify Dog Leukocyte Antigen (DLA)-identical littermate pairs for hematopoietic cell transplantation and to select pairs of dogs with desired histocompatibility type for breeding. These efforts are critical in order for the dog to function as a translational model for human hematopoietic cell transplantation. While the typing effort is focused on the two most polymorphic class I and class II loci, DLA-88 and DRB1, additional efforts will involve developing methods for typing 3 additional polyallelic DLAclass I loci. This Core will also generate dendritic cells, develop genetically modified K562 cell lines for expression of selected DLA class I alleles, and develop tetramers for minor antigen-specific T cell identification and characterization.
