HLA D Typing assay

TLDR
In this article, an assay for HLA D phenotype where antigen-pulsed monocytes are contacted with antigen-specific T lymphocytes or T cell hybridomas was proposed.
Abstract
An assay for HLA D phenotype wherein antigen-pulsed monocytes are contacted with antigen-specific T lymphocytes or T cell hybridomas and the extent of selective binding between the pulsed monocytes and the T lymphocytes or T cell hybridomas determines HLA D phenotype of the monocyte. The assay is particularly useful for quickly typing donortissue prior to transplantation.

Hla typing method and cdna probes used therein

TL;DR: In this paper, a restriction length polymorphism based HLA typing is carried out by digesting an individual's HLA DNA with a restriction endonuclease that produces a polymorphic digestion pattern with HLA, subjecting the digest to genomic blotting using a labeled cDNA hybridization probe that is complementary to an HLA sequence involved in the polymorphism.

Transgenic animals harboring app allele having swedish mutation

TL;DR: In this paper, a transgene encoding an APP polypeptide comprising the Swedish mutation was proposed. But it was not suitable for transgenic non-human animals and transgenic mammalian cells.

Methods of screening for beta-amyloid peptide production inhibitors

TL;DR: In this article, the β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) is monitored by detecting the secretion of a soluble amino-terminal fragment or βAPP (ATF-βAPP).

Methods and compositions for monitoring cellular processing of beta-amyloid precursor protein

TL;DR: In this article, the β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) is monitored by detecting the secretion of a soluble bAPP fragment resulting from cleavage of βAPP at the amino-terminus of β-AMyloid peptide.

Biochemical separation of a human B cell mitogenic factor

TL;DR: During the isolation procedure the proliferation-stimulating activity of the column fractions was assayed concurrently on purified human T cells, purified human B cells, and murine thymocytes, and the fractions associated with B cell mitogenic activity induced B cell S-phase entry in a proportion of B lymphocytes in the absence of any detectable IgM secretion.

Cloned cytotoxic and non-cytotoxic lymphocytes in mouse and man: their reactivities and a large cell surface membrane protein (LMP) differentiation marker system.

TL;DR: Cellular interactions within the immune system, which consists of an enormously complex series of positive and negative regulatory networks, can now be studied in a reductionist view involving the various contributing cell types, provided each of them can be cloned.

Automatic HLA typing apparatus

TL;DR: In this paper, a phase-contrast microscope was used for automatically typing HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) with high accuracy, where an optical image of a sample containing lymphocytes was formed by a phase contrast microscope, and the optical image was transformed into electrical picture signal through a image pick-up unit, which in turn is transformed into binary picture patterns for a predetermined area site in the image through a window circuit.

Process for determining the complement-dependent cytotoxicity mediated by anti-HLA antibodies by means of ATP determination and device for ATP determination

TL;DR: In this paper, a process for determining the complement-dependent cytotoxicity mediated by anti-HLA antibodies was proposed, which measured the loss of intracellular ATP after addition of complement to anti-HLA coated target cells.
