Primary association of HLA-DQw8 with type I diabetes in DR4 patients.
نویسندگان
چکیده
DNA from 164 Caucasian type I (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients and 200 Caucasian nondiabetic control blood donors were analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction technique for HLA-DR4 and the associated Dw and DQB subtypes of DR4. The DQw8 subtype of HLA-DR4 was associated with type I diabetes in all DR4 subgroups (DR4/3 and DR4/non-3). Dw subtypes of DR4 other than DW10 did not confer additional association with type I diabetes. Thus, the DQ region appears to provide the primary major histocompatibility association with type I diabetes in most DR4 patients.

Previous studies demonstrated that HLA-DR4 was markedly increased among Ashkenazi Jewish patients with pemphigus vulgaris (PV), almost entirely as the common Jewish extended haplotype [HLA-B38, SC21, DR4, DQw8] or as the haplotype HLA-B35, SC31, DR4, DQw8, and that HLA-DR4, DQw8 was distributed among patients in a manner consistent with dominant expression of a class II (D-region or D-region-li...

We analyzed extended haplotypes composed of DNA loci on the short arm of chromosome 11 for segregation with insulin-dependent (type I) diabetes mellitus. The markers for these loci are tyrosine hydroxylase, insulin, and c-Ha-ras-1 proto-oncogene (HRAS1). We report, in a study of 27 families, that a specific haplotype (H), containing a 3-kilobase (kb) HRAS1-Taq I DNA polymorphism, segregated dif...

Background: There are several evidences that genetic factors besides environmental triggers have important role in initiating the rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to investigate the association of rheumatoid arthritis with different subtypes of HLA DR4 in Iranian patients. Methods: In an un-matched case control study, 110 rheumatoid arthritis patients (case) and 56 knee ost...
متن کاملA particular subset of HLA-DR4 accounts for all or most of the DR4 association in type I diabetes.
Two human T-lymphocyte clones, derived from a mixed leukocyte culture (MLC) with stimulating cells from a type I diabetic patient, define a subset of HLA-DR4, tentatively called "DR4S." In testing of 69 random type I diabetic subjects and 69 random controls, 79% (37/47) of DR4-positive patients, but only 44% (8/18) of DR4-positive controls, had DR4S (P less than 0.01). The relative risk of type...
متن کاملDoes the locus on chromosome 11 implicated in susceptibility to HLA-DR4 dependent type I diabetes mellitus also affect susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis?
There is a polygenic component to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in addition to the known association with HLA-DR4. It has previously been shown in another autoimmune disease (type I diabetes mellitus) that a gene on chromosome 11p can act with HLA-DR4 to enhance susceptibility (relative risk 5-6). It is therefore possible that this locus may also affect the development of RA. Genotype frequencies a...
