[In conclusion, the results of the present study (i) demonstrate that the frequency of HLA class I allospecificity abnormalities in primary melanoma lesions is markedly higher than that of total HLA class I antigen downregulation described in the literature; (ii) corroborate our previous findings that staining of melanoma lesions with mAb to monomorphic determinants of HLA class I antigens does not detect selective HLA class I allospecificity loss; and (iii) demonstrate for the first time selective loss of antigenic determinants expressed on HLA class I molecules in melanoma lesions.].
