HLA system in relation to carbohydrate metabolism in lichen planus. 1979

S Halevy, and R Zamir, and E Gazit, and E J Feuerman

HLA antigens were determined in a group of fifty-two patients with lichen planus. In the group as a whole the frequency of A28 was increased but not significantly so. When the patients were subdivided according to the results of an oral glucose tolerance test, however, a highly significant increase in the frequency of A28 was found among the non-diabetic patients.

D008010 Lichen Planus An inflammatory, pruritic disease of the skin and mucous membranes, which can be either generalized or localized. It is characterized by distinctive purplish, flat-topped papules having a predilection for the trunk and flexor surfaces. The lesions may be discrete or coalesce to form plaques. Histologically, there is a "saw-tooth" pattern of epidermal hyperplasia and vacuolar alteration of the basal layer of the epidermis along with an intense upper dermal inflammatory infiltrate composed predominantly of T-cells.
