The association of HLA-DRB genes and the shared epitope with rheumatoid arthritis in Pakistan.

British journal of rheumatology - 1 Nov 1997

Hameed K, Bowman S, Kondeatis E, Vaughan R, Gibson T

Abstract excerpt

The association of particular HLA-DR alleles and the shared epitope with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is now well established. The strength of these links varies between races. Furthermore, the proposition that the presence of the shared epitope is indicative of severe disease has been more difficult to sustain in non-Europeans. This study examines the frequency of HLA-DR and HLA-DRB1 amongst Pakistanis for the...
