Unresponsiveness to Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccine in Healthy Iranian Neonates: Association with HLA Antigens
Background: Hepatitis B is an important infectious disease. Since several years ago, mass vaccination against this viral infection has become as part of routine vaccination schedule of Iran. However, some healthy neonates, children and adults fail to generate a protective antibody response after vaccination.Objectives: To investigate distribution of HLA class-I and class-II antigens in health...
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium prevents precise definition of susceptibility determinants for idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.
Clark et al. (Clin. Sci. 1990; 78, 391-7) [ l ] have recently demonstrated positive associations between HLA-DR7, HLA-DQw2 and steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS). Their conclusions, however, that the DR7 DRB chain and the DQw2 DQS chain may determine SSNS susceptibility over-interpret the presented data. Distinct effects of DR7 and DQw2 were inferred from the positive associations of t...
متن کاملTHE SYNDROME OF DIABETES INSIPIDUS, DIABETES MELLITUS, OPTIC ATROPHY, DEAFNESS, AND ATONIA OF THE URINARY TRACT (DIDMOAD SYNDROME). TWO AFFECTED SIBS AND A SHORT REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE
Two brothers with DIDMOAD syndrome are reported. The older brother has diabetes mellitus (type I), diabetes insipidus, optic atrophy, deafness and atonia of the urinary tract with severe symptoms such as diabetic ketoacidosis and frequent urinary tract infections. His younger brother had the same manifestations but with less severity. We report the findings of our two patients and compare ...
متن کاملBehçet's syndrome in Scotland.
We present the clinical details and HLA typing of 15 Celtic Caucasian patients (four male, 11 female) with Behçet's syndrome (International Study Group criteria). The males affected were younger than the affected females, and three of these males had severe uveal involvement. Two of the 15 patients had the A2 Bw6 Dr4 haplotype but this did not confer family penetrance. Eight had gastrointestina...
متن کاملAssociation between presence of HLA-B*5701, HLA-DR7, and HLA-DQ3 and hypersensitivity to HIV-1 reverse-transcriptase inhibitor abacavir.
BACKGROUND The use of abacavir--a potent HIV-1 nucleoside-analogue reverse-transcriptase inhibitor--is complicated by a potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity syndrome in about 5% of cases. Genetic factors influencing the immune response to abacavir might confer susceptibility. We aimed to find associations between MHC alleles and abacavir hypersensitivity in HIV-1-positive individuals t...
