Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) have been proposed to modulate the immune response to Mycobacterium leprae. The association of HLA-DRB1 with leprosy has been reported in several populations, but not in a Chinese population. METHODS: The polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific olig...
