Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we characterized major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and MHC-related genes and molecules in common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) by performing polymorphism, expression and functional analyses of such as polymorphism analysis and next generation sequencing based genotyping using 85 related and unrelated animals, specification of immune cells that are driven by MHC expression using flow cytometry, removal method for micro-chimeric cells using GFP transgenic marmoset, development of monoclonal antibodies against MHC class I molecules, development of analysis tool for typing of T cell receptor genes and quantitation of cytokines, and preparing specimens from standard organs and tissues for future immunological studies.
