Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s (PD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative diseases are responsible for considerable morbidity mortality. With incidence rising with aging, these also represent a growing societal challenge. Pathophysiology involves accumulation of tau (neurofibrillary tangles) Amyloid-β-rich (amyloid plaques) aggregates in AD, α-synucl...

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Sağlık Araştırma ve Uygulama Merkezi Doku Tipleme Laboratuvarına başvuran kişilerde HLA sınıf I II allel sıklığının belirlenmesi genotipleme sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç yöntem: Çalışmamızda toplam 1903 kişinin verileri incelenmiş sıklığı hesaplanmıştır. A, B DRB1 allelleri tüm örneklerde, C DQB1 alleleri 493 kişide çalışılmıştır. Değerlendirmeye alınm...

Autoimmune neutropenia (AIN) of early childhood is caused by autoantibodies against antigens on the neutrophil membrane. Human leukocyte (HLA) have previously been associated with AIN. This study investigated HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1 alleles in 160 antibody positive patients compared 1000 controls. Increased risk was observed for DRB1*10, DRB1*14, DRB1*16 DQB1*05, lower DRB1*04, DRB1*13 DQB1*03. H...

Background: Human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-associated myelopa-thy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an inflammatory disease which occurs in less than 2% of HTLV-I -infected individuals. High proviral load, high HTLV-I-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte frequency (CTL) and host genetic factors such as HLA all appear to be associated with HTLV-I infection. Previous stud...

Introduction Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune and inflammatory disease. Many studies show HLA alleles can be associated with SLE. The aim of this study was to determine the association of HLA-DRB1 alleles with juvenile- onset in Iranian children. Materials and Methods At a case – control study, 31 children with systemic lupus erythematosus (case group) who referred to ...

testing revealed that the patient was positive for HLA-DRB1*04, HLA-DRB1*12, HLA-DQB1*03, andHLA-DQB1*04. To best of our knowledge, this is first case fulminant T1DM reported to occurimmediately after COVID-19 infection.

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an acquired autoimmune blistering disease characterized by the production of autoantibodies targeting desmosomal cadherins, primarily desmoglein 1 and 3, leading to acantholysis. The etiology PV multifactorial, including genetic susceptibility. This retrospective study aimed evaluate association HLA class II alleles examine impact PV-associated on concentration anti-d...

Objective(s): The population in Iran is a genetic admixture of the ancestral Aryan and other populations neighboring Iran. Different ethnic groups in Iran show wide regional distributions for many human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. Therefore, it is necessary and sensible to study the differences in HLA allele distribution in different area. We studied the HLA class I and II allele frequenci...
