Popis: Coeliac disease is a small intestinal disorder, induced by ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Coeliac disease has been strongly linked to human leukocyte antigens (HLA) located on chromosome 6, with almost 100 % of coeliac disease sufferers carrying either a HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, with the majority carrying HLA-DQ2 encoded by the DQA1*05:01/05:05, DQB1*02:01/02:02 alleles, whereas the remaining carry the HLA-DQ8 encoded by the DQA1*03:01, DQB1*03:02 alleles. In this work, we present the development of a multiplex electrochemical genosensor array of 36 electrodes, housed within a dedicated microfluidic platform and using a total of 10 sequence-specific probes for rapid medium-high resolution HLA-DQ2/DQ8 genotyping. An evaluation of the selectivity of the designed probes was carried out with the target sequences and 44 potentially interfering alleles, including single base mismatch differentiations; good selectivity was demonstrated. The performance of the electrochemical genosensor array was validated, analyzing real human samples for the presence of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 alleles, and compared with those obtained using laboratory-based HLA typing, and an excellent correlation was obtained.
