Association 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 کاملRole of Human Leukocyte Antigens in Studying Population Diversity
Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) loci widely known for their role in generation of immune responsesare often considered to be effective in reconstructing human phylogenies due to high degree of polymorphism and rarity of recombination observed at HLA loci. In this review, we have made an attempt to discuss the role of HLA in immune response. Further we have tried to highlight the evolutionary ...
متن کاملJuvenile myoclonic epilepsy and human leukocyte antigens
The idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGE) occur with a high aggregation within families. Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is recognized as a commonly occurring form of idiopathic generalized epilepsy. A possible association between JME and HLA antigens was investigated by serological typing of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) class I antigens and by DNA oligotyping of class II antigens. Twenty...
متن کاملHLA Antigens in Omani Psoriasis Vulgaris Patients.
OBJECTIVES To determine the frequency of different HLA-antigens in patients with plaque psoriasis in the Omani Arab population. METHODS Fifty four Omani patients clinically diagnosed with plaque psoriasis attending the dermatology outpatient clinic in Al-Nahdah Hospital (the tertiary dermatology centre in Oman) were selected for HLA studies. RESULTS HLA-B52 was present in 20.4% of patients ...
