HLA-A, -B and -DR antigens in IgA nephropathy.
Fifty-six Irish patients with IgA Nephropathy were typed for HLA-A and -B antigens. Forty-six were typed for HLA-DR antigens. The frequencies of these antigens did not differ significantly from the frequency in the general population. The influence of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of this disease remains uncertain.
