Abstract
HLA class II antigen presentation is modulated by the activity of the peptide editor HLA-DM and its antagonist HLA-DO, with their interplay controlling the peptide repertoires presented by normal and malignant cells. The role of these molecules in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) is poorly investigated. Balanced expression of HLA-DM and HLA-DO can influence the presentation of leukemia-associated antigens and peptides targeted by alloreactive T cells, therefore affecting both anti-leukemia immunity and the potential onset of Graft versus Host Disease. We leveraged on a large collection of bulk and single cell RNA sequencing data, available at different repositories, to comprehensively review the level and distribution of HLA-DM and HLA-DO in different cell types and tissues of the human body. The resulting expression atlas will help future investigations aiming to dissect the dual role of HLA class II peptide editing in alloHCT, and their potential impact on its clinical outcome.
期刊介绍:
Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology publishes review articles integrating the results from the latest original research articles into practical, evidence-based review articles. These articles seek to address the key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach which focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known, covering the spectrum of clinical and laboratory haematological practice and research. Although most reviews are invited, the Editor welcomes suggestions from potential authors.
