title: HLA antigens in Bali (Indonesia) with a special reference to an isolated community.
abstract: One hundred eighty-two Balinese were typed for HLA-A and -B locus antigens. From these, 103 were also typed for HLA-C, 51 for HLA-DR, 172 for Bf and 173 for GLO. These results and the significant phenotypic associations are situated with respect to other South-East Asian populations. In addition to this first study, 175 individuals from an isolated Balinese village typed for HLA-A, -B, -DR, Bf and GLO are presented. The effect of isolation on haplotype (HLA-A/-B/Bf/-DR) variability is discussed.
