ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate whether the polymorphisms of HLA-DPA1,DPB1,DQA1 and DQB1 alleles were associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eighty-seven NPC patients and 91 normal controls of Han nationality in Hunan province were genotyped for HLA-DPA1, HLA-DPB1,HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1 by PCR/SSO technique.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The frequencies of allelic gene DPA1*0201, DPB1*1901 and DQA1*0201 were lower, and of DPB1*0402, DQA1*0101 were higher in patients than in controls; the frequencies of haplotype DPA1*0201-DPB1*1401 and DQA1*0201-DQB1*0201 in patients were lower than those in controls; however, the values of P are not significant after Bonferroni correction(Pc>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>No significant association between the HLA-DP and HLA-DQ loci and NPC in Han nationality in Hunan province was confirmed.</p>
