Estradiol 149-165 MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B Homo sapiens 174-178 23527639-8 2013 These results suggest that the partial benefit of 17beta-estradiol on autoimmune diseases may be mediated by reducing the immune NKG2D ligands like MICB. Estradiol 50-66 MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B Homo sapiens 148-152
