This study seeks to elucidate the association between HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DRB1 alleles and their relative risk contributions to ALL within an Iranian cohort.
Utilizing a robust case-control design, this research involved 71 ALL patients and 71 age and sex-matched healthy individuals. Genotyping of specified HLA alleles was performed using the advanced PCR-SSP technique.
Our findings reveal a marked increase in the prevalence of the HLA-DRB104 allele among patients diagnosed with ALL compared to the control group (P<0.027). Conversely, the alleles HLA-A26 (P=0.025), HLA-A33 (P=0.020), and HLA-DRB103 (P=0.035) were observed at significantly reduced frequencies within the patient population.
Our findings highlight HLA-DRB104 as a potential genetic marker for increased susceptibility to ALL, while HLA-A26, HLA-A33, and HLA-DRB103 emerge as protective factors.
本研究旨在阐明伊朗队列中 HLA-A、HLA-B 和 HLA-DRB1 等位基因与 ALL 之间的关联及其相对风险贡献。
本研究采用了稳健的病例对照设计，纳入了 71 名 ALL 患者和 71 名年龄和性别匹配的健康个体。使用先进的 PCR-SSP 技术对特定 HLA 等位基因进行基因分型。
我们的研究结果显示，与对照组相比，ALL 患者中 HLA-DRB104 等位基因的患病率显著增加（P<0.027）。相反，在患者群体中，HLA-A26（P=0.025）、HLA-A33（P=0.020）和 HLA-DRB103（P=0.035）等位基因的频率显著降低。
我们的研究结果强调了 HLA-DRB104 作为 ALL 易感性增加的潜在遗传标志物，而 HLA-A26、HLA-A33 和 HLA-DRB103 则作为保护因素出现。
