HLA and chronic active hepatitis. 1977

M C Mazzilli, and S Trabace, and F D Raimondo, and E Gandini, and G Visco

42 patients (33 males and 9 females) with chromic active hepatitis (CAH) mostly HBsAg+, were typed for 24 alleles of the A and B loci. Diagnosis was performed according to the criteria outlined by the European Association for the Study of the Liver. The increased frequency of HLA-A3 (47.6% instead of 19.1% in 266 healthy controls) is significant after correction. The relative risk is 3.83. The phenotypic association A3/Bw35 is also increased (28.5% instead of 6.0 in the control group). The risk of the A3/Bw35 association is 6.25. The risk of A3 calculated in patients lacking Bw35 is 1.6. A family study in 5 patients over 5 showed an haplotype A3/Bw35.

D002908 Chronic Disease Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).

D006525 Hepatitis, Viral, Human INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans due to infection by VIRUSES. There are several significant types of human viral hepatitis with infection caused by enteric-transmission (HEPATITIS A; HEPATITIS E) or blood transfusion (HEPATITIS B; HEPATITIS C; and HEPATITIS D).

D006649 Histocompatibility Antigens A group of antigens that includes both the major and minor histocompatibility antigens. The former are genetically determined by the major histocompatibility complex. They determine tissue type for transplantation and cause allograft rejections. The latter are systems of allelic alloantigens that can cause weak transplant rejection.

D006680 HLA Antigens Antigens determined by leukocyte loci found on chromosome 6, the major histocompatibility loci in humans. They are polypeptides or glycoproteins found on most nucleated cells and platelets, determine tissue types for transplantation, and are associated with certain diseases.
