Immunoglobulin allotypes in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Gm phenotypes and the Km(1) allotype were studied in Tunisian patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). A highly significant association was found between the Km(1) allotype and the NPC disease. Two rare Gm haplotypes, Gm(1, 17; 11, 15, 21) and Gm(1, 3, 5, 11), were found to be significantly increased among the NPC patients.
