The variability in the immune response modulated by HLA alleles may be an important factor for the induction of the protective effect of HBsAg vaccines. We present here the analysis of HLA-DRB1, DQB1 and DQA1 alleles and their combinations in the group of 36 individuals with poor humoral immmune response to HBsAg vaccination. Comparison with the control group, consisted of 60 randomly choosen healthy subjects, revealed that the DRB1*1601, DQB1*0502, DQA1*0102 haplotype is overrepresented in the group of hyporesponders and may therefore be regarded as a factor influencing poor antibody responsiveness. We observed that after revaccination two of three individuals who failed to develop anti-HBs antibodies carry the same phenotype DRB1*0101,DRB1*0301;DQB1*0501,DQB1*0201;DQA1+ ++*0101,DQA1*0501, which supports the conjecture that immunogenicity of the HBsAg vaccine depends on specific combination of HLA DR and DQ molecules on antigen presenting cells.

D006239 Haplotypes The genetic constitution of individuals with respect to one member of a pair of allelic genes, or sets of genes that are closely linked and tend to be inherited together such as those of the MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX. Haplotype
D006514 Hepatitis B Surface Antigens Those hepatitis B antigens found on the surface of the Dane particle and on the 20 nm spherical and tubular particles. Several subspecificities of the surface antigen are known. These were formerly called the Australia antigen. Australia Antigen,HBsAg,Hepatitis B Surface Antigen,Antigen, Australia
D006683 HLA-DQ Antigens A group of the D-related HLA antigens found to differ from the DR antigens in genetic locus and therefore inheritance. These antigens are polymorphic glycoproteins comprising alpha and beta chains and are found on lymphoid and other cells, often associated with certain diseases.

D000917 Antibody Formation The production of ANTIBODIES by proliferating and differentiated B-LYMPHOCYTES under stimulation by ANTIGENS. Antibody Production,Antibody Response,Antibody Responses,Formation, Antibody,Production, Antibody,Response, Antibody,Responses, Antibody
D000949 Histocompatibility Antigens Class II Large, transmembrane, non-covalently linked glycoproteins (alpha and beta). Both chains can be polymorphic although there is more structural variation in the beta chains. The class II antigens in humans are called HLA-D ANTIGENS and are coded by a gene on chromosome 6. In mice, two genes named IA and IE on chromosome 17 code for the H-2 antigens. The antigens are found on B-lymphocytes, macrophages, epidermal cells, and sperm and are thought to mediate the competence of and cellular cooperation in the immune response. The term IA antigens used to refer only to the proteins encoded by the IA genes in the mouse, but is now used as a generic term for any class II histocompatibility antigen.
