Phylogenetic Applications of HLA Class II Loci
Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) loci widely known for their role in generation of immune responses are often considered to be effective in reconstructing human phylogenies due to high degree of polymorphism and rarity of recombination observed at HLA loci. In the present study, we have made an attempt to substantiate the phylogenetic potential of HLA class II loci by analyzing DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1...
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 I and Class II Genes Distribution of the Sistanis in Iran
Background: The high polymorphism in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes can be used as an identity of individuals to compare with other populations. This extreme polymorphism in the HLA system is accountable for the differences in alleles and haplotypes among ethnic groups, populations, and the inhabitants of many regions. Objective: To define the frequency of HLA alleles and haplotypes am...
متن کاملAssociation 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 کاملمطالعه وابستگی اللهای ژنهای HLA-class II ((HLA-DRB/DQA1/DQB1 و سرطان پستان
Background: Based on the reports, high frequency of special alleles of HLA class II genes might be associated with susceptibility to or protective from a particular cancer. These alleles might vary depending on the geographical region. Here we investigate the association between alleles of HLA class II genes and breast cancer in Iranian women.Methods: 100 patients with pathologically proved bre...
