Popis: | Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease, caused by environmental and genetic factors. Aim To elucidate the association of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1*/DQB1* alleles/haplotypes and the variations of polymorphic amino acid changes in peptide binding pockets in RA patients from south India. Methods HLA typing was performed in 176 RA patients and 176 healthy controls by polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific primers method. Results Strong susceptible association for alleles such as DRB1*04:01(odds ratio OR] = 3.66), 04:06 (OR = 3.81), 03:01 (OR = 2.93), 06:01 (OR = 2.53) and protective association for alleles such as DRB1*13:01 (OR = 0.17), 14:01 (OR = 0.15), 05:02 (OR = 0.17), and 05:03 (OR = 0.338) were observed in RA patients. The 2-locus haplotypes such as 04-02:01 (OR = 3.844), 04-06:01 (OR = 6.57), 07-03:01 (OR = 6.16), 07-06:01 (OR = 3.42), 12-06:01 (OR = 5.24), 15-03:01 (OR = 4.69) with susceptible and DRB1*14-DQB1*05:03 (OR = 0.078) with protective associations were observed in RA patients. The acid-base analysis revealed that the basic group BB allele was positively associated (OR = 2.372) and the acidic group AA allele was negatively associated (OR = 0.086). The analysis on shared epitopes has revealed that the combination QKRAA+, (Q)RRAA+ or (Q)RRAA- was positively associated with RA (OR = 2.78). The amino acid variation at HLA-DQ beta molecule revealed susceptible associations for residues E-86 and L-87 (P1); E-74 (P3); A(13), Y-26, I/S-28, T-28, I-71 and E-74 (P4); L-9, T-30, D-37 and D-57 (P9), whereas, the amino acids A(86) and T-87 (P1); S-74 (P3); G(13/26), A(71) and S-74 (P4); H-30 and T-37, S-57 (P9), showed protective associations. Conclusions Alleles DRB1*04:06 and*04:01 showed strong susceptible and DRB1*13:01 and *14:01 showed protective associations in RA patients. The amino acid variations in DQ beta molecules revealed significant molecular markers for susceptibility to and protection from RA in south India. |
