TL;DR: In this article, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6 is associated with susceptibility to more common diseases than any other region of the human genome, including almost all disorders classified as autoimmune.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale genetic fine mapping and genotype-phenotype associations implicate polymorphism in the IL2RA region in type 1 diabetes

TL;DR: The type 1 diabetes (T1D) association in the interleukin 2 receptor alpha (IL2RA) gene region is localized to two independent groups of SNPs, spanning overlapping regions of 14 and 40 kb, encompassing IL2RA intron 1 and the 5′ regions of IL2 RA and RBM17.
Journal ArticleDOI

Down-regulation of NKG2D and NKp80 ligands by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus K5 protects against NK cell cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: The KSHV immune evasion gene, K5, reduces cell surface expression of the NKG2D ligands MHC class I-related chain A, MICB, and the newly defined ligand for NKp80, activation-induced C-type lectin (AICL).
