Abstrakt: Peyronie's disease has been associated with HLA tissue types, including HLA-A1, DR3, DQw2 and HLA-B7 cross-reactive group antigens which include HLA-B27. This association was tested as was the process of molecular mimicry where the host HLA surface antigen cross-reacts with a microorganism.
