Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that closely related human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotypes containing the DRB1*07:01 gene ['DR7' (DRB1*07:01-DQA1*02:01-DQB1*02:01g or DRB1*07:01-DQA1*03:01-DQB1*02:01g) haplotypes] derived from European and African populations differ in their genetic susceptibility for type 1 diabetes (T1D) depending on the DQ-α molecule present. A combined total of 98 African...
