Contribution of HLA alleles in the regulation of antibody production in Lyme disease.

Frontiers in bioscience : a journal and virtual library - 1 Sept 2001

Wang P, Hilton E

Abstract excerpt

A small subset of patients infected with Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) does not produce Bb specific antibody. Our research provides additional evidence of a genetic predisposition for seronegativity in some individuals with Lyme disease. Because human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II, a heterodimeric glycoprotein, plays an essential role in the regulation of antibody production, we investigated the difference in HLA...
