HLA-DR antigens have been found on Schwann cells in peripheral neuropathies of different origins but not in normal control cases. Class II antigen reactivity was more intense in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 1 (HMSN), but was also observed in toxic or metabolic neuropathies. The expression of HLA-DR antigen on Schwann cells does not appear to be related to the inflammatory or autoimmune origin of the disease.

D006681 HLA-D Antigens Human immune-response or Class II antigens found mainly, but not exclusively, on B-lymphocytes and produced from genes of the HLA-D locus. They are extremely polymorphic families of glycopeptides, each consisting of two chains, alpha and beta. This group of antigens includes the -DR, -DQ and -DP designations, of which HLA-DR is most studied; some of these glycoproteins are associated with certain diseases, possibly of immune etiology.
