Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To analyze the genetic background of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease in Mexican Mestizo patients in order to establish whether the pathogenesis is related to the same genes or sequences described in other populations. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In 48 VKH p...
