The HLA System and Dermatological Diseases

  • Chapter
Immunodermatology

Part of the book series: Comprehensive Immunology ((COMIMUN,volume 7))

  • 180 Accesses

Abstract

The study of the major histocompatibility complex in man, which is called the HLA system, has emerged during the last 15 years as a new biomedical research field. It covers a broad spectrum of topics ranging from basic studies of regulatory mechanisms controlling immune responsiveness to clinical investigations of genetic aspects of a variety of human diseases.
