BACKGROUND: HLA-B27 positivity is normal in patients undergoing rheumatic diseases. (bvsalud.org)
Alleles1
In the case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and related illnesses, many of the HLA class II alleles are associated with the presence of specific autoantibodies or clinical phenotypes. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
Predispose1
[10] While HLA-B27 does not appear to predispose to the initial infection itself, it increases the risk of developing arthritis that is more likely to be severe and prolonged. (marlerblog.com)
Spondyloarthritis1
OBJECTIVE: To describe and analyse the initial symptoms attributable to patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) and their association with HLA-B27 status. (bvsalud.org)
Clinical features3
HLA-B27 AAU has characteristic clinical features including male preponderance, unilateral alternating acute onset, a non-granulomatous appearance, and frequent recurrences, whereas HLA-B27 negative AAU has an equivalent male to female onset, bilateral chronic course, and more frequent granulomatous appearance. (wikipedia.org)
Spondyloarthropathies (SpA) encompass a group of chronic inflammatory diseases sharing common genetic and clinical features, including the association with HLA-B27 antigen, the involvement of both the axial and the peripheral skeleton, the presence of dactylitis, enthesitis, and typical extra-articular manifestations such as psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and acute anterior uveitis (AAU). (hindawi.com)
Spondyloarthropathies (SpA) embrace different chronic inflammatory diseases sharing common genetic (association with HLA-B27 antigen) and clinical features. (hindawi.com)
Ankylosing spondylitis2
INTRODUCTION: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and carriage of HLA-B27 gene in otherwise healthy individuals, are reportedly associated with increased mortality. (bvsalud.org)
Finally, differences among 148 cases with HLA-B27 positivity and negativity suffering from ankylosing spondylitis (AS) were investigated. (bvsalud.org)
Systemic3
It is most commonly associated with HLA-B27, which has important features: HLA-B27 AAU can be associated with ocular inflammation alone or in association with systemic disease. (wikipedia.org)
Systemic exposure to tacrolimus was generally low with 96% of blood samples assayed containing concentrations below 1 ng per mL and 23% of samples below the lower limit of quantification (0.025 ng per mL). (researchgate.net)
Furthermore, translocation of immune cells from one anatomical compartment to another, i.e., the gut-lung axis via the lymphatics or blood has been identified as an important factor in perpetrating systemic inflammation, tissue destruction, as well as modulating host-protective immune responses. (frontiersin.org)
Genetic2
A clear association has been made between reactive arthritis and a genetic factor called the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) B27 genotype. (marlerblog.com)
The determinants of the outcome of chronic hepatitis B appear to be both viral (HBV DNA levels, HBV genotype, some HBV mutation patterns) and host-specific (age, gender, genetic background, immune status). (neodx.in)
Human3
Overall primary concerns are: extrapolating human clinical studies, seeding durable effective T cell resident memory (Trm), population human leucocyte antigen (HLA) coverage, and the potential for T cell-mediated immune escape. (mdpi.com)
RESULTS: Six factors, namely red blood cell count, human major compatibility complex, mean platelet volume, albumin/globulin ratio (ALB/GLB), prealbumin, and bicarbonate radical, were chosen with the aim of constructing the diagnostic nomogram using ML methods. (bvsalud.org)
In the absence of autoantibodies, an incompatible crossmatch in a sensitized patient is attributed to mismatched donor human leukocyte antigens (HLA). (stanford.edu)
Antibody2
Interestingly, the recent data in RA indicate that the major HLA-DR associations are with anti-CCP antibody positive disease, suggesting that control of autoantibody responses may be a primary mechanism underlying these associations in RA as well. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
DSA-FXM: Accelerated donor specific flow crossmatch discriminating class I and II antibody specifically and only to donor HLA for determining true incompatibility. (stanford.edu)
Bound2
The polymorphisms associated with the "shared epitope" are located on the α-helical rim (DRB1 chain) of the peptide-binding cleft, where they may interact with either the bound peptide antigen or the T cell receptor. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
Result interpretation is difficult or impossible when autoantibodies, alloantibodies, and/or therapeutic antibodies coexist.METHODS: Herein we describe a unique donor specific flow crossmatch (DSA-FXM) that distinguishes HLA class I and/or II DSA bound to HLA antigens on the donor cell surface in their native conformation that is not impacted by rituximab, ATG (after absorption), or auto-antibodies. (stanford.edu)
Antibodies1
Some people have antibodies in their blood called "heterophile antibodies," which may interfere with CA 125 testing. (biron.com)
Presence1
Symptoms include eye pain, eye redness, floaters and blurred vision, and ophthalmic examination may show dilated ciliary blood vessels and the presence of cells in the anterior chamber. (wikipedia.org)
Liver1
METHODS: This study screened totally 1503 patients who underwent HLA-B27 examination, liver/kidney function tests, and complete blood routine examination in First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University. (bvsalud.org)
METHODS1
However, current physical crossmatch methods cannot distinguish reactivity to HLA from other clinically irrelevant cell surface targets nor the class of HLA if it is the target. (stanford.edu)
Distinct1
Based on sequence comparison, HBV is classified into eight genotypes, A to H. Each genotype has a distinct geographic distribution. (neodx.in)
Immune4
It is thought that HLA-B27 may affect the elimination of the infecting bacteria or an individual's immune response. (marlerblog.com)
CONCLUSION: To conclude, the proposed ML model can effectively predict HLA-B27 and help doctors in the diagnosis of various immune diseases. (bvsalud.org)
The HLA molecules and their counterparts in rodents were subsequently shown to be directly responsible for immune response differences between individuals and for determining the likelihood of graft rejection. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
The allelic variations among different HLA molecules are a major factor accounting for differences in the types of antigenic peptides to which an individual responds or in the types of T cells that are used in an immune response. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
Individuals1
[9] HLA-B27 has been shown to be a predisposing factor in one-half to over two-thirds of individuals with reactive arthritis. (marlerblog.com)

Class4
HLA class I molecules consist of a 45-kD α chain encoded within the MHC that is noncovalently associated with the 12-kD β 2 -microglobulin chain (encoded on chromosome 15). (musculoskeletalkey.com)
HLA class II molecules consist of noncovalently associated α (32 kD) and β (28 kD) chains, both of which are encoded within the MHC. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
