Genetic aspects of ankylosing spondylitis.

Best practice & research. Clinical rheumatology - 1 Sept 2002

Khan Muhammad A, Ball Edward J

Abstract excerpt

There is substantial evidence strongly favouring a direct role for HLA-B27 in genetic susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and related spondyloarthropathies (SpA), although the underlying molecular basis has yet to be identified. HLA-B27 itself is a serologic specificity that encompasses 26 different alleles that encode 24 different subtypes - HLA-B*2701 to B*2725, with the exclusion of B*2722. [The...
