Several South, Central and North American Indian populations have been characterized over the past 9 years. A summary is given here. Very few major antigens have been found, namely A2, A9, A28 and Aw31 and B5, B15, Bw16, Bw35 and B40. However, several known splits of these antigens have been identified, and new variants are also likely. Immunogenetic analyses of the Amerindians should be able to provide clues both to the origins of the Amerindian cultures and migrations of early man, and also provide new insights into the antigens and the loci of the MHC.
在过去9年里，对几个南美洲、中美洲和北美洲的印第安人群体进行了特征描述。以下是一个总结。发现的主要抗原非常少，即A2、A9、A28和Aw31以及B5、B15、Bw16、Bw35和B40。然而，已经确定了这些抗原的几种已知亚型，并且也可能存在新的变体。对美洲印第安人的免疫遗传学分析应该能够为美洲印第安文化的起源和早期人类的迁徙提供线索，同时也能为MHC的抗原和基因座提供新的见解。
