Ninety-eight adult patients and 194 geographically and ethnically matched controls were studied. HLA-C was determined by polymerase chain reaction sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) and PCR-sequence-specific oligonucleotides (SSO) methods. The HLA-Cw*16 allele frequency was found to be significantly increased amongst patients compared with controls in our population (27·6% vs. 12·4%, P = 0·0012, Pc = 0·016). HLA-C dimorphism was also analysed but no association was found.engjournal article1365-2141https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2141.2006.06334.xrestricted accessBiología2412 Inmunología
