BACKGROUND: Genotyping of HLA-DQ2.2, HLA-DQ2.5, and HLA-DQ8 is important in celiac disease (CD). The absence of these three genotypes has a strong negative predictive value. METHODS: We designed multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) for the combined detection of HLA-DQ2.2, HLA-DQ2.5, and HLA-DQ8. The MLPA probe mix was validated against a set of 59 samples characterized by conventional...
