Abstract excerpt
The frequency of HLA genes in one population may not accurately represent frequencies in other populations. In this study, we characterized extended human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotypes in several families of Kuwaiti descent by high-resolution typing using next-generation technology. A total 81 members (including patients and related donors) from 21 families were enrolled. No haplotypes were shared among...
