Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Genetic background and infection have been implicated in the etiology of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) are a diverse family of activating and inhibitory receptors expressed on natural killer (NK) cells and T cells, the genes of which show extreme polymorphism. Some KIRs bind to HLA class I subgroups, and genetic interactions between KIR genes and their...
