Abstract excerpt
Sixty-four patients with Takayasu's arteritis and 156 healthy individuals in the Japanese population were examined for HLA-B specificity at the DNA level by DNA typing using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe (SSOP) analysis and by subsequent sequencing analysis. The frequency of epitope combination group-B52 (EC-B52) corresponding precisely to HLA-B52 specificity and that of...
