HLA class II DRB1, DQB1, DPB1 polymorphism and cardiomyopathy due to Trypanosoma cruzi chronic infection.

Human immunology - 1 Mar 2000

Abstract excerpt

Trypanosomiasis is an important cause of cardiomyopathy in endemic rural areas of Latin America. Previous studies have suggested participation of HLA molecules in the immune response regulation of T. cruzi infection, and association of HLA antigens with heart damage. One hundred and eleven unrelated T. cruzi antigen-seropositive individuals were tested for HLA class II alleles by the polymerase chain reaction and...
