HLA-A2-positive nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC; n = 38) and normal control (n = 51) populations were analysed by high-resolution oligotyping to identify A2 allelic microvariants. Within the control group, A*0207 was found to be the most common allele, accounting for 50% of the A2 frequency in normals. In contrast, this allele was found to be present in only 23% of NPC cases, suggesting a protective effect. Of...
