Abstract excerpt
In this study, we have analysed the distribution of HLA class II alleles and the extended haplotype HLA-Cw-B-DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 in Croatian patients with type I and type II psoriasis by hybridization with specific oligonucleotide probes. Type I psoriasis showed a significant association with the DRB1*0701 [P < 0.00001; relative risk (RR) = 5.83], DQA1*0201 (P < 0.00001; RR = 6.12), DQB1*0201 (P = 0.0006; RR = 3.29)...
