''' Major Histocompatibility Complex''' (MHC) are part of the cell immune system.  MHC molecules display antigens on the host cell’s surface.  T cell or natural killer receptors recognize the MHC:peptide and activate the immune response.  MHC class I ([[Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I]]) are found in all nucleated cells.  MHC class II are found in professional antigen-presenting cells like macrophages.
