Popis: | Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR3 haplotypes are associated with susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D). Reports from Northern European populations show that an allele (D6S273*2) at a microsatellite mapping to HLA class III marks an extended DR3-B18 haplotype associated with increased susceptibility to T1D. Consistent with previous reports, D6S273*2 marked a highly predisposing DR3 haplotype in European origin, multiplex families from the USA. Furthermore, we observed on DR3 haplotypes that other D6S273 alleles were also significantly associated with both increased transmission (D6S273*5; P |
