Descriptor English: HLA-C Antigens
Descriptor Spanish: Antígenos HLA-C
Descriptor antígenos HLA-C
Scope note: Antígenos humanos de histocompatibilidad (HLA) de clase I codificados por un pequeño conjunto de genes estructurales del locus C del cromosoma 6. Su inmunogenicidad es significativamente menor que la de los determinantes HLA-A y HLA-B, y por tanto tienen poca importancia en la compatibilidad cruzada entre donante y receptor. Su papel fundamental es su asociación de alto riesgo con ciertas manifestaciones de enfermedades (p. ej., espondiloartritis, psoriasis, mieloma múltiple).

Scope note: Class I human histocompatibility (HLA) antigens encoded by a small cluster of structural genes at the C locus on chromosome 6. They have significantly lower immunogenicity than the HLA-A and -B determinants and are therefore of minor importance in donor/recipient crossmatching. Their primary role is their high-risk association with certain disease manifestations (e.g., spondylarthritis, psoriasis, multiple myeloma).
