[Associations of human leukocyte antigen-A, B, DRB1 genes with leukemia patients in Anhui province of China].
This study was aimed to investigate the relation of human leukocyte antigen-A, B, DRB1 genes with the susceptibility of population to leukemia in Anhui province of China. The HLA genotypes were analyzed by PCR-SSP in 140 patients with chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML), 84 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), 90 patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) and 916 healthy unrelated donors of hematopoietic stem cell as normal control admitted to Anhui provincial hospital. The gene frequencies of HLA-A, B, DRB1 between patients and normal controls were compared, chi² test was used for statistical analysis. The results showed that as compared with normal controls, the gene frequencies of A2, A11, B58 and DR9 in CML patients all obviously increased, and gene frequency of DR7 decreased; the gene frequencies of All and B13 in ALL patients were significantly higher than that in normal controls; the gene frequencies of A24, B58 and DR9 in ANLL patients were significantly higher than that in normal controls. It is concluded that HLA-A2, A11, B58 and DR9 are predisposing genes of CML patients, DR7 is an antagonistic gene, HLA-A11 and B13 are predisposing genes of ALL patients, HLA-A24, B58 and DR9 are predisposing genes of ANLL patients.
