P-145: Role of Human Leukocyte Antigen in Miscarriage
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 کاملAssociations between human leukocyte antigen class I variants and the Mycobacterium tuberculosis subtypes causing disease.
BACKGROUND The development of active tuberculosis disease has been shown to be multifactorial. Interactions between host and bacterial genotype may influence disease outcome, with some studies indicating the adaptation of M. tuberculosis strains to specific human populations. Here we investigate the role of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I genes in this biological process. METHODS ...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigen variation among Iranian renal transplant recipients.
BACKGROUND HLA typing analysis is important in renal transplant patients. OBJECTIVES We made a plan to determine the most frequent HLA antigens in Iranian kidney transplant patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a retrospective cross sectional study, HLA patterns were defined in 512 kidney transplant recipients (67% male and 33% female) from different transplant centers of Tehran, Iran between 2...
متن کاملThe Role of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Complex in IBD: Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis
The human leukocyte antigen complex on chromosome 6 is the most extensively studied genetic region in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Consistent evidence of linkage to IBD3 (6p21.1-23), an area which encompasses the HLA complex, has been demonstrated for both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. However, despite these efforts the HLA susceptibility genes for IBD remain elusive and unclear,...
