Descriptor English: HLA-A Antigens
Descriptor Spanish: Antígenos HLA-A
Descriptor antígenos HLA-A
Scope note: Antígenos polimorfos de superficie del sistema principal de histocompatibilidad (HLA) humano de clase I que están presentes en casi todas las células nucleadas. Se han identificado al menos 20 antígenos que son codificados por el locus A de alelos múltiples del cromosoma 6. Sirven como objetivos de las respuestas citolíticas de los linfocitos T e intervienen en la aceptación o el rechazo de los trasplantes de tejidos y órganos.

Scope note: Polymorphic class I human histocompatibility (HLA) surface antigens present on almost all nucleated cells. At least 20 antigens have been identified which are encoded by the A locus of multiple alleles on chromosome 6. They serve as targets for T-cell cytolytic responses and are involved with acceptance or rejection of tissue/organ grafts.
