Abstract excerpt
We have investigated restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of HLA and non-HLA regions of the genome in the homogeneous Danish population. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients and healthy individuals were selected for being HLA-DR 3/4 heterozygous to evaluate the influence of genes other than DR on disease susceptibility. Five different probes were used: HLA alpha and beta DQ (chromosome...
