ABSTRACT

Objective:

To seek for susceptible and protective gene of GD by analyzing the allele frequency distribution of HLA-DQA1 loci and to evaluate the association of HLA-DQA1 gene polymorphism with GD pathogenesis in Chongqing children of Han race.

Methods:

Eighty-five children with GD [including 21 boys and 64 girls,mean age (8.84?2.51)] and 50 racially matched healthy controls were recruited for the study.Both groups were of Han race.Genomic DNA was extracted from venous blood samples.Genotypes of HLA-DQA1 were detected by polymerase chain reactions with single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP).The results were identified by DNA sequence typing.Frequencies of HLA-DQA1 alleles at eath locus were compared between patients and controls using the ? 2 -test.

Results:

7 kinds of HLA-DQA1 conformations were found in 85 GD and 50 healthy controls, respectively marked with a b c d e f g.Compared with control group,the frequencies of d and f conformation increased significantly [43.5% VS 8%, ? 2=18.79,P=0.001, relative risk(RR)=8.86;27% VS 8%, ? 2=6.80,P =0.009,RR=4.27],and the frequency of b conformation decreased significantly (8.2% vs 52%, ? 2=29.43,P=0.001, RR=0.08) in GD group.DNA sequence analysis showed that d conformation was HLA-DQAl*0102, f conformation was HLA-DQAl*0302/0501,b conformation was HLA-DQA1*0101/0301.

Conclusion:

The polymorphism of HLA-DQA1 loci in Chongqing children of Han race are different from that of Caucasian,American Black,Japanese and Hongkong Chinese. It shows that different race and area have different alleles.GD is significantly associated with HLA-DQA1*0102, HLA-DQA1*0302/0501 and HLA-DQA1*0101/0301.It suggests that the HLA-DQA1*0102 and HLA-DQA1*0302/0501 might be the genetic markers for susceptibility, HLA-DQA1*0101/0301 might be the protective genetic markers for GD in Chongqing children of Han race.
