Abstract excerpt
Studying genetic factors that control human immune responsiveness may further our understanding of specific types of asthma in which the role of immune factors is uncertain to date. HLA Class II gene products are involved in the control of immune responses. Therefore, we investigated whether HLA Class II genetic markers contribute to susceptibility or resistance to isocyanate-induced asthma (IAA) in exposed...
