Major histocompatibility complex-dependent susceptibility to Cryptococcus neoformans in mice.

Erin E McClelland1, Donald L Granger, Wayne K Potts.   

Abstract

To evaluate the role of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes in the resistance to Cryptococcus neoformans, we conducted infection experiments in MHC-congenic strains of mice. Significant MHC-dependent susceptibility differences were found among homozygotes and heterozygotes. This study is the first experimental demonstration of MHC-dependent susceptibility to C. neoformans infections in mice and indicates that MHC genes can be important in host resistance.
