title: [The genotyping of HLA-D region and specific RFLP patterns for Chinese Han population].
abstract: The HLA class II antigens play very an important role in presenting foreign antigens. The class II gene typing at the DNA level possesses higher capability to recognize polymorphism so that it can disclose new specificities. According to the RFLP patterns of DRB and DQA genes for Caucasian HTC and some Chinese homozygous cells, we typed 90 randomly sampled healthy Chinese Hans in Shanghai area, and compared the results obtained with those from serological typing. In addition to being reliable and superior to serological typing, we found some unique RFLP patterns of the HLA-D region in Chinese Han population based on comparison with Caucasian patterns.
