HLA class II and TNF genes in African Americans from the Southeastern United States: regional differences in allele frequencies.

Human immunology - 1 Jun 2003

Kuffner Tamara, Whitworth William, Jairam Maya, McNicholl Janet

Abstract excerpt

Knowledge of population major histocompatibility complex gene frequencies is important for construction of organ donor pools and for studies of disease association. Human leukocyte antigen DRB1 (HLA-DRB1), HLA-DQB1, and TNFalpha -308 (G-A) promoter genetic typing was performed in 112 healthy, unrelated African Americans (AAs) from the southeastern United States. Allele frequencies were compared with published...
