The MHC class II transactivator modulates seeded alpha-synuclein pathology and dopaminergic neurodegeneration in an in vivo rat model of Parkinson's disease.
Title: The MHC class II transactivator modulates seeded alpha-synuclein pathology and dopaminergic neurodegeneration in an in vivo rat model of Parkinson's disease.
Study found that natural allelic differences in the Mhc2ta gene regulating MHCII expression levels impact microglial phenotype, antigen presentation capacity and dopaminergic pathology after overexpression of human alpha-syn. These results indicate that Mhc2ta is a key upstream regulator of the inflammatory response in Parkinson's Disease pathology.
Title: Allelic difference in Mhc2ta confers altered microglial activation and susceptibility to α-synuclein-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration.
Naturally occurring allelic variability in Mhc2ta profoundly affects the quantity of class II histocompatibility gene expression in the central nervous system and modulates susceptibility to autoimmune neuroinflammation.
Title: Vra4 congenic rats with allelic differences in the class II transactivator gene display altered susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Silencing of CIITA transcription is recessive in trophoblasts and involves an epigenetic mechanism other than promoter methylation. Trophoblasts may be missing a factor that regulates chromatin structure at the CIITA promoter.
Title: Class II transactivator (CIITA) promoter methylation does not correlate with silencing of CIITA transcription in trophoblasts.
mutations result in differential MHC molecule expression associated with susceptibility to inflammatory diseases
Title: MHC2TA is associated with differential MHC molecule expression and susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and myocardial infarction.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
