FL Xiao, S Yang, K Yan, Y Cui, YH Liang… - Journal of …, 2006 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Some studies suggested that human HLA status may potentiate
development of the AA phenotype and exists ethic differences. No report has been
published about HLA class I alleles associated with AA in Chinese Hans. OBJECTIVE: To
study the distribution of HLA class I alleles and haplotypes in Chinese Hans AA patients and
the relation of HLA class I profile with age of onset, severity, duration of current attack, past
history and family history. METHODS: The polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific …
