This gene cluster is called the major histocompatibility complex, or MHC. Products of genes within this complex induce differentiation of T cells, as measured by blast-cell transformation, clonal expansion, and the develo

The hallmarks of the mammalian immune system — specificity, inducibility, memory, and regulation — have been conclusively shown to be associated with lymphocytes (Gowans, 1970). The division of lymphocytes into two major classes, known as T cells

The Biological Function of the Major Histocompatibility Complex: Hypotheses,mous scientific interest during the past thirty to forty years. The MHC, which is known under a variety of names, depending on the species (Table I), has been shown to play a key role in a variety of immunological and physiological phenomena (Table II). It has become increasingly apparent that under
