Objective

The current study explored the correlation of Helicobacter pylori and the polymorphisms of human leukocyte antigen II (HLA-II) alleles with Graves disease (GD).

Methods

A total of 216 patients with GD were recruited. 102 healthy volunteers constituted the control group. Levels of H. pylori immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies and H. pylori cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) IgG antibodies were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Molecular typing of the HLA-II alleles was conducted using polymerase chain reaction with sequence specific primers.

Results

H. pylori, particularly CagA-positive strains, HLA-DQA1*0201, and HLA-DQA1*0501 were associated with GD (P = 0.015, OR = 1.811; P = 0.000, OR = 3.085; P = 0.000, OR = 0.315; and P = 0.004, OR = 2.844, respectively). Patients with CagA-positive H. pylori and negative HLA-DQA1*0201 or positive HLA-DQA1*0501 were more likely exposed to GD compared with those with only one of these indices.

Conclusion

CagA-positive H. pylori, negative HLA-DQA1*0201, or positive HLA-DQA1*0501 may increase the risk of GD.  相似文献

Gene-wide association and candidate gene studies indicate that the greatest effect on multiple sclerosis (MS) risk is driven by the HLA-DRB1*15:01 allele within the HLA-DR15 haplotype (HLA-DRB1*15:01-DQA1*01:02-DQB1*0602-DRB5*01:01). Nevertheless, linkage disequilibrium makes it difficult to define, without functional studies, whether the functionally relevant effect derives from DRB1*15:01 only, from its neighboring DQA1*01:02-DQB1*06:02 or DRB5*01:01 genes of HLA-DR15 haplotype, or from their combinations or epistatic interactions. Here, we analyzed the impact of the different HLA-DR15 haplotype alleles on disease susceptibility in a new “humanized” model of MS induced in HLA-transgenic (Tg) mice by human oligodendrocyte-specific protein (OSP)/claudin-11 (hOSP), one of the bona fide potential primary target antigens in MS. We show that the hOSP-associated MS-like disease is dominated by the DRB1*15:01 allele not only as the DRA1*01:01;DRB1*15:01 isotypic heterodimer but also, unexpectedly, as a functional DQA1*01:02;DRB1*15:01 mixed isotype heterodimer. The contribution of HLA-DQA1/DRB1 mixed isotype heterodimer to OSP pathogenesis was revealed in (DRB1*1501xDQB1*0602)F1 double-Tg mice immunized with hOSP(142–161) peptide, where the encephalitogenic potential of prevalent DRB1*1501/hOSP(142–161)-reactive Th1/Th17 cells is hindered due to a single amino acid difference in the OSP(142–161) region between humans and mice; this impedes binding of DRB1*1501 to the mouse OSP(142–161) epitope in the mouse CNS while exposing functional binding of mouse OSP(142–161) to DQA1*01:02;DRB1*15:01 mixed isotype heterodimer. This study, which shows for the first time a functional HLA-DQA1/DRB1 mixed isotype heterodimer and its potential association with disease susceptibility, provides a rationale for a potential effect on MS risk from DQA1*01:02 through functional DQA1*01:02;DRB1*15:01 antigen presentation. Furthermore, it highlights a potential contribution to MS risk also from interisotypic combination between products of neighboring HLA-DR15 haplotype alleles, in this case the DQA1/DRB1 combination.  相似文献

Chronic beryllium disease (CBD) is associated with the allelic substitution of a Glu69 in the HLA-DPB1 gene. Although up to 97% of CBD patients may have the Glu69 marker, about 30-45% of beryllium-exposed, unaffected individuals carry the same marker. Because CBD occurs in only 1-6% of exposed workers, the presence of Glu69 does not appear to be the sole genetic factor underlying the disease development. Using two rounds of direct automated DNA sequencing to precisely assign HLA-DPB1 haplotypes, we have discovered highly significant Glu69-containing allele frequency differences between the CBD patients and a beryllium-exposed, nondiseased control group. Individuals with DPB1 Glu69 in both alleles were almost exclusively found in the CBD group (6/20) vs the control group (1/75). Whereas most Glu69 carriers from the control group had a DPB1 allele *0201 (68%), most Glu69 carriers from the CBD group had a non-*0201 DPB1 Glu69-carrying allele (84%). The DPB1 allele *0201 was almost exclusively (29/30) associated with DPA1 *01 alleles, while the non-*0201 Glu69-containing DPB1 alleles were closely associated with DPA1 *02 alleles (26/29). Relatively rare Glu69-containing alleles *1701, *0901, and *1001 had extremely high frequencies in the CBD group (50%), as compared with the control group (6.7%). Therefore, the most common Glu69-containing DPB1 allele, *0201, does not seem to be a major disease allele. The results suggest that it is not the mere presence of Glu69, per se, but specific Glu69-containing alleles and their copy number (homozygous or heterozygous) that confer the greatest susceptibility to CBD in exposed individuals.  相似文献

HLA-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0602 is associated with protection against type 1 diabetes (T1D). A similar allele, HLA-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0604, contributes to T1D susceptibility in certain populations but differs only at seven amino acids from HLA-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0602. Five of these polymorphisms are found within the peptide-binding groove, suggesting that differences in peptide binding contribute to the mechanism of their association with T1D. In this study, we determine the peptide-binding motif for HLA-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0604 allelic protein (DQ0604) in comparison to the established HLA-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0602 (DQ0602) motif using binding assays with model peptides from T1D autoantigens and homology modeling using the coordinates of the DQ0602-hypocretin 1-13 crystal structure. The peptide binding preferences were deduced with a peptide from insulin that bound both with a 2- to 3-fold difference in avidity using the same amino acids in the peptide as anchors. Peptide binding differences directly influenced by the polymorphisms in or nearby pockets 1, 6, and 9 were observed. In pocket 1, DQ0604 was better able to accommodate aromatic residues due to the beta86 and beta87 polymorphisms. A negatively charged amino acid was preferred by DQ0604 in pocket 6 due to the positively charged beta30His. In pocket 9, DQ0604 preferred aromatic amino acids due to the beta9 and beta30 polymorphisms and had low tolerance of acidic residues. beta57Val in DQ0604 functions differently than beta57Ala, in that it pushes alpha76Arg outside of the pocket, preventing the formation of a salt bridge with an acidic amino acid in the peptide. This study furthers our understanding of the structure-function relationships of MHC class II polymorphisms.  相似文献

The aim of the study was to assess chosen factors of genetic susceptibility to DMT1: DRB1, DQB1, and TNF-alpha polymorphisms-308 (G/A) in children with DMT1 and their up-to-now healthy siblings. Then we tested whether the association between TNF-alpha genes and DMT1 is independent of HLA. 87 diabetic children, their 78 siblings, and 85 persons from healthy control group were followed up. The highest risk of DMT1 was connected with alleles: DRB1*0401 (OR = 3.39; CI: 1.55-7.41), DRB1*0301 (OR = 2.72; CI: 1.48-5.01), DQB1*0201 (OR = 4.04; CI: 2.17-7.52), DQB1*0302 (OR = 5.08; CI: 2.54-10.14), and TNF-alpha-308 A allele (OR = 2.59; CI: 1.23-5.44). Moreover linkage disequilibrium for TNF-alpha-308 A allele with DRB1*0301 and DQB1*0201 was observed in both diabetic children and their siblings. Diabetic children and their siblings present similar genetic risk factors for DMT1. The association between TNF-alpha-308 A allele and DMT1 is dependent of HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 alleles.  相似文献

Psoriasis vulgaris is a HLA-associated common and persistent inflammatory skin disease of unknown aetiology. The transporters associated with antigen processing (TAP) genes are polymorphic genes located in the HLA class II region and due to their essential involvement in class I antigen presentation might be additional susceptibility genes to psoriasis. To investigate the possible involvement of the TAP1 gene in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, we analysed its polymorphism in 169 Polish patients with psoriasis vulgaris and compared them with 66 healthy controls. The frequency of TAP1*D was significantly increased in the patients, compared to the control group. The TAP alleles were also analysed with respect to the age of onset of psoriasis in the patients but no significant differences were recorded. In conclusion, our data suggest that the TAP1*D allele could lead to genetic susceptibility to psoriasis vulgaris in Poles.  相似文献

Studies of the stability of HLA-DQ have revealed a correlation between SDS stability of MHC class II alphabeta dimers and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) susceptibility. The MHC class II alphabeta dimer encoded by HLA-DQA1*0102/DQB1*0602 (DQ0602), which is a dominant protective allele in IDDM, exhibits the greatest SDS stability among HLA-DQ molecules in EBV-transformed B-lymphoblastoid cells and PBLs. DQ0602 is also uniquely SDS stable in the HLA-DM-deficient cell line, BLS-1. We addressed the molecular mechanism of the stability of DQ0602 in BLS-1. A panel of mutants based on the polymorphic differences between HLA-DQA1*0102/DQB1*0602 and HLA-DQA1*0102/DQB1*0604 were generated and expressed in BLS-1. An Asp at beta57 was found to be critical for SDS stability, whereas Tyr at beta30, Gly at beta70, and Ala at beta86 played secondary roles. Furthermore, the level of class II-associated invariant chain peptide bound to HLA-DQ did not correlate with SDS stability, suggesting that class II-associated invariant chain peptide does not play a direct role in the unique SDS stability of DQ0602. These results support a role for DQB1 codon 57 in HLA-DQ alphabeta dimer stability and IDDM susceptibility.  相似文献

The association between HLA-DR and -DQ and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in a defined high-incidence area was analyzed in a total of 58 population-based patients, representing 77% of IDDM patients with age at onset below 16 years, and in 92 unrelated parents in control families without IDDM. HLA haplotypes were confirmed by analyzing first-degree relatives in both groups. Seven different methods were used to analyze risk: (1) odds ratio, (2) absolute risk, (3) haplotype relative risk, (4) transcomplementation relative risk, (5) relative predisposing effects, (6) stratification analysis, and (7) test of predisposing allele on haplotype. DQB1*0302 indicated somewhat higher risk than did DR4, while DR3 had a higher risk than DQB1*0201; however, the 95% confidence intervals of the risk estimates overlapped. The positive association between IDDM and the DQB1*0201-DQA1*0501-DR3 haplotype seems to be due to DR3 or to an unknown linked gene. More important, DQA1*0301 was present among 93% of the patients, and this allele in various transcomplementation combinations with DQB1 alleles showed closer association to IDDM than did any other alleles. The strong negative association of the DQB1*0602 allele also in the presence of either DR4 or DQB1*0302 or both suggests that, in a high-risk population for IDDM, HLA-DQ primarily confers protection, perhaps by induction of tolerance. Consistent with known functions, HLA-DR may primarily confer susceptibility, perhaps by induction of autoreactive T lymphocytes.  相似文献
