HLA-Modeler: Automated Homology Modeling of Human Leukocyte Antigens
The three-dimensional (3D) structures of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules are indispensable for the studies on the functions at molecular level. We have developed a homology modeling system named HLA-modeler specialized in the HLA molecules. Segment matching algorithm is employed for modeling and the optimization of the model is carried out by use of the PFROSST force field considering t...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigens (HLA) associated drug hypersensitivity: consequences of drug binding to HLA.
Recent publications have shown that certain human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles are strongly associated with hypersensitivity to particular drugs. As HLA molecules are a critical element in T-cell stimulation, it is no surprise that particular HLA alleles have a direct functional role in the pathogenesis of drug hypersensitivity. In this context, a direct interaction of the relevant drug with...
متن کاملhuman leukocyte antigens (hla) associated with selective iga deficiency in iran and sweden
selective iga deficiency (igad) (serum iga concentration of pcr was used to type hla b, dr, and dq alleles in 29 iranian individuals with igad and 299 swedish individuals with igad. the results indicate a strong association with the hla b14, dr1 alleles in iranian subjects and hla b8, b12, b13, b14, b40, dr1, dr3, dr7, dq2 and dq5 alleles in swedish subjects. differences in hla association of i...
متن کاملAssociation of Human Leukocyte Antigens Class I & II with Graves’ Disease in Iranian Population
Background: Graves’ disease (GD), a highly rampant autoimmune disorder of the thyroid gland, is responsible for 60-80% of the clinical cases of hyperthyroidism. Over the past decades, genetic association studies have identified several GD susceptibility loci in CTLA-4, TSHR and major histocompatibility complex regions. The information on the association between the human leukocyte antigens (HLA...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigens HLA DRB1 influence clinical outcome of chronic lymphocytic leukemia?
We investigated HLA DRB1 correlations with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) outcome in 90 patients. Neither of the alleles was associated with B-CLL clinical characteristics or mortality. HLA DRB1*01 and HLA DRB1*02-null were associated with shorter overall survival (p=0.007, p=0.002). Our results suggest that HLA-restricted adaptive immunity influences CLL outcome.
