title: [Frequency of HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-Cw antigens in the Slovak population].
abstract: Results on HLA-A, -B and -Cw antigen frequencies in the Slovak population are presented. HLA-A, -B, -Cw antigens were determined in 654 healthy unrelated individuals. The highest frequency was observed for the antigens HLA-A2, -A1; HLA-B12, -B35, and HLA-Cw8. The least frequent antigens were HLA-A34, -A36, HLA-B58, -B67, -B70, -B77, and HLA-Cw8. The results were compared with those of the previous study and with those of Czech, Austrian and Hungarian populations. No statistically significant differences were observed.
