Taking advantage of a unique cohort infected with clade B' HIV-1 through contaminated blood, in which many variables such as the length...
متن کاملAssociation of MICA polymorphism with HLA-B51 and disease severity in Korean patients with Behcet's disease.
The HLA-B51 allele is known to be associated with Behcet's disease (BD) in many ethnic group. However, it has not yet been clarified whether the HLA-B51 gene itself is the pathogenic gene related to BD or whether it is some other gene in linkage disequlibrium with HLA-B51.
