Human Leukocyte Antigen Class I and II Variants in Yemeni Patients with Chronic Renal Failure
Background: Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) are found to be significant genetic factors concerning the susceptibility of an individual to certain diseases. Objective: To determine the association between variants of class I (A and B) and class II (DRB1) HLA alleles and chronic renal failure (CRF), compared with healthy controls, in Yemen. Methods: A case-control study in the Urology and Nephrol...
متن کاملP-164: Human Leukocyte Antigen Class Ib and Pregnancy Success
Background: During pregnancy, the maternal immune system is in close contact with cells and tissue from the semiallogenic fetus .The Human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) class Ib molecules, HLA-E, -F and -G, are expressed at the materno-fetal interface. Because of the apparent immunoregulatory functions of these proteins, they may be involved in successful acceptance of the semi-allogenic fetus during...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigen class I genotypes in relation to heterosexual HIV type 1 transmission within discordant couples.
Differences in immune control of HIV-1 infection are often attributable to the highly variable HLA class I molecules that present viral epitopes to CTL. In our immunogenetic analyses of 429 HIV-1 discordant Zambian couples (infected index partners paired with cohabiting seronegative partners), several HLA class I variants in index partners were associated with contrasting rates and incidence of...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigen class I gene mutations in cervical cancer.
BACKGROUND Various mechanisms contribute to the loss of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I expression that is frequently observed in cancers. Although some single allele losses have been ascribed to mutations in HLA class I genes, direct evidence for this phenomenon in vivo is still lacking. Thus, we investigated whether HLA class I gene mutations could account for the loss of allele-specifi...
متن کاملCan the Decreased Expression of Human Leukocyte Antigen Class Ⅰ and Ⅱ by Spermatozoa Lead to Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion?
Background & Objective: Unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) is defined as an unknown cause of occurrence of three or more clinically detectable pregnancy losses before 20 weeks of gestation, but it occurs presumably as a result of the immune system dysfunctions. We supposed that the disruption of semen or spermatozoa might be responsible for the dysfunction of the...
