Association between HLA-Class I and HLA-Class II Alleles and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection in Iraqi Patients from Baghdad City
Background: Pulmonary tuberculosis (PT) is one of the endemic diseases in Iraq, and among the suggested predisposing factors are alleles of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system. We sought to investigate the association between HLA-class I (A and B) and -class II (DR and DQ) alleles in a sample of PT Iraqi patients.Methods: lymphocytes of 105 PT patients and 40 controls were phenotyped for H...
متن کاملULCERATIVE COLITIS AND HLA CLASS II PHENOTYPING IN IRAN
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a nonspecific acute and chronic inflammatory bowel disease that diffusely involves the colonic mucosa. The etiology of UC has not yet been elucidated fully. However, many studies have found that immunologic disorders may play a role in the pathogenesis of UC. In addition, due to an increased frequency of UC in families, especially an increased monozygotic compared...
متن کاملHLA class II associations with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in children.
The occasional familial occurrence of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) points to a genetic predisposition. Reports on associations with certain HLA class II antigens support this hypothesis. In order to define the immunogenetic background of NS more precisely, HLA class II allele frequencies in 161 children with NS were studied by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing. The pa...
متن کاملHLA class II transgenic mice: the chance to unravel the basis of HLA class II associations with disease
T hough the first association between HLA and disease was established with an HLA class I molecule (1), the majority of HLA-disease associations have been with HLA dass II molecules (2). Despite the awareness of such associations for nearly two decades, the pathophysiological role of HLA class II molecules in conferring susceptibility to the associated diseases remains poorly understood. One im...
