  • An association was seen between viral hepatitis and HLA-A1. (wikipedia.org)
  • exogenous rhIL-10 has a limited effect on cytokine production and no effect on T lymphocyte proliferation or HLA expression. (cdc.gov)
  • Further asthmatic patients with negative skin tests tended toward higher A1,B8 serotypes. (wikipedia.org)
  • Methods Flow cytometer from American BD company was used to test the express levels of HLA-B27 from 95 patients with AS, 226 non-AS patients, and 50 healthy control. (39kf.com)
  • Results According to the critical value of BD (≥147),there were only 58 positive cases (61.05%) in AS group and there were 17 AS patients whose HLA-B27 levels were between 140 and 146, there were 11 positive case (4.87%) in non-AS group, and there were 3 positive cases (6.00%) in healthy group.

  • A total of 26/33 evaluable patients treated at 1280 μg developed an immune response, directed against multiple antigens in 15 out of 33 patients. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Subjects presenting with both CD and DH generally show an HLA pattern in which A1, B8, DR2, DR7, DQw2 are the most frequent antigens one can find. (unipr.it)
  • Circulation cytometry Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) used in this study to bind HLA-G were G233 (Loke (1993) by amplifying a 141 or 155 bp region spanning the polymorphism using the primers 5′-GTAGTGTGAAACAGCTGCCC-3′ and 5′-AAGGAATGCAGTTCAGCATGA-3′ and resolving products by electrophoresis having a 3% low-melting-point agarose gel.
