Different MHC class I cell surface expression levels in diverse chicken lines, associations with B blood group, and proposed relationship to antigen-binding repertoire by Michael Kaiser, Jim Kaufman, Susan J. Lamont

“…The two sublines (B5.1 and B15.2) of the Fayoumi breed, which significantly differed in their MHC class I expression, also differ in response to multiple pathogens. These defined genetic lines of chickens, with distinct MHC class I expression levels, provide an excellent platform to further interrogate the hypothesis of high or low MHC class I expression (antigenic specialists or generalists, respectively) determining diverse responses to pathogens.…”
