Discordant HLA haplotype segregation in familial Crohn's disease. 1980

O E Eade, and C Moulton, and B R MacPherson, and S S Andre-Ukena, and R J Albertini, and W L Beeken

To look for possible HLA linkage in familial Crohn's disease, HLA haplotype segregation patterns were determined in 70 members of five kindreds, each having 2 or more patients with Crohn's disease (total number: 13 with Crohn's disease, 1 with ulcerative colitis). Concordant segregation of HLA haplotypes and disease was not observed. Study of HLA A and B locus phenotypes in 64 additional patients with documented Crohn's disease failed to show any significant disease association. We conclude that in these kindreds, HLA linkage does not account for the familial susceptibiltiy to Crohn's disease and that HLA A and B locus antigens are not associated with Crohn's disease.

D010641 Phenotype The outward appearance of the individual. It is the product of interactions between genes, and between the GENOTYPE and the environment. Phenotypes
D003093 Colitis, Ulcerative Inflammation of the COLON that is predominantly confined to the MUCOSA. Its major symptoms include DIARRHEA, rectal BLEEDING, the passage of MUCUS, and ABDOMINAL PAIN. Colitis Gravis,Idiopathic Proctocolitis,Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Ulcerative Colitis Type,Ulcerative Colitis
D003424 Crohn Disease A chronic transmural inflammation that may involve any part of the DIGESTIVE TRACT from MOUTH to ANUS, mostly found in the ILEUM, the CECUM, and the COLON. In Crohn disease, the inflammation, extending through the intestinal wall from the MUCOSA to the serosa, is characteristically asymmetric and segmental. Epithelioid GRANULOMAS may be seen in some patients.
