Comparative analysis of SLA-1, SLA-2, and DQB1 genetic diversity in locally-adapted Kenyan pigs and their wild relatives, warthogs

Swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) plays a central role in controlling the immune response by discriminating self and foreign antigens and initiating an immune response. Studies on SLA polymorphism have demonstrated associations between SLA allelic variants, immune response, and disease resistance. The S...
