Effect of IFN-gamma on the expression of MHC class I and class II antigens in a human malignant oral epithelial cell line
Abstract
This study examined the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens in the KB human carcinoma cell line. MHC class I antigens (HLA-ABC and beta 2microglobulin) were constitutively expressed but not significantly enhanced by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). By contrast, MHC class II antigens were absent or expressed minimally on unstimulated KB cells, but DR and DP were significantly stimulated in a non-coordinated pattern (HLA-DR greater than -DP greater than -DQ) by IFN-gamma.
