HLA-DRB1, -DQA1 and -DQB1 allele frequencies were determined by high-resolution polymerase chain reaction using sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes (PCR-SSOP) and/or DNA sequencing in 126 healthy individuals in Cameroon. Eighteen DRB1, 11 DQA1, and 18 DQB1 alleles were observed. The most common alleles at each locus were DRB11503 (29%), DRB11301 (13%); DQA10102 (38%), DQA10302 (11%), DQA10401 (11%); and DQB10602 (31%), DQB10301 (13%), DQB10501 (12%). Forty-four different haplotypes were identified including 12 novel haplotypes demonstrating the HLA class II diversity resulting from allele combinations in this population. A single predominant DRB11503-DQA10102-DQB1*0602 haplotype was observed with a frequency of 27%. In summary, this study of HLA class II polymorphism in Cameroon demonstrates the extent of diversity in this population.
在喀麦隆的126名健康个体中,采用序列特异性寡核苷酸探针的高分辨率聚合酶链反应(PCR-SSOP)和/或DNA测序法确定了HLA-DRB1、-DQA1和-DQB1等位基因频率。共观察到18个DRB1等位基因、11个DQA1等位基因和18个DQB1等位基因。每个基因座最常见的等位基因分别为DRB11503(29%)、DRB11301(13%);DQA10102(38%)、DQA10302(11%)、DQA10401(11%);以及DQB10602(31%)、DQB10301(13%)、DQB10501(12%)。共鉴定出44种不同的单倍型,其中包括12种新单倍型,这显示了该人群中由等位基因组合导致的HLA II类分子多样性。观察到一种主要的DRB11503-DQA10102-DQB1*0602单倍型,其频率为27%。总之,这项关于喀麦隆HLA II类多态性的研究展示了该人群中的多样性程度。
