Abstract:

BACKGROUND: It has great significance to understand individual human leucocyte antigen allele (HLA) haplotype and genotype.
OBJECTIVE: To analyze HLA allele frequency, haplotype frequency and characteristics in 56 cases of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
METHODS: HLA-A, B, DRB1 antigen was subjected to genotyping using PCR-SSP technique. The allele and haplotype frequencies of HLA-A, B, DRB1 were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 8 HLA-A, 19 HLA-B and 13 HLA-DRB1 alleles were detected among 56 cases, showing a rich polymorphism. Among 224 haplotypes, A﹡02-B﹡46, A﹡11-B﹡40, B﹡46-DRB1﹡09 were informative with frequency higher than 0.10. A total of 10 HLA-A-B haplotypes and 4 HLA-B-DRB1 haplotypes were in strongest linkage disequilibrium. Results showed that HLA alleles have richer polymorphisms with obvious geographic genetic characteristics.
