In mice it has been shown that mating preference is genetically associated with the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). In the present study, an approach is described to study homologous aspects of the MHC in man. After selection of families with one or more children, a given parental HLA antigen was selected and the frequencies of the spouse's HLA antigens were determined. Assuming a random distribution, these frequencies should not be statistically different from those of the total population. Evidence is presented that this distribution is not random for a number of maternal and paternal HLA antigens.
在小鼠中已表明，交配偏好与主要组织相容性复合体（MHC）存在遗传关联。在本研究中，描述了一种研究人类MHC同源方面的方法。在选择有一个或多个孩子的家庭后，选择一种给定的亲本HLA抗原，并确定配偶的HLA抗原频率。假设为随机分布，这些频率在统计学上应与总人口的频率无差异。有证据表明，对于一些母本和父本HLA抗原，这种分布并非随机。
