title: [Distribution and function of immunogenetic markers on epidermal cells].
abstract: Gene products of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are vital for the regulation of immunocompetent cell interactions and, thus, of the entire immune response. In this report, we describe the distribution of these MHC-encoded alloantigens on epidermal cells of different species and discuss their potential role in the generation of epidermal immune reactions.
