Abstract:
Objective: To ascertain the gene flow tracks and patterns and the origin of HLA class Ⅱ in the Chinese Nation.Methods : HLA classⅡ in 11 Chinese groups and 5 reference populations was studied by clustering analysis of genetic structure and distribution comparison of gene frequencies.Results and Conclusion: These analyses revealed that these genes decreased southwards and originated probably in Caucasoid or Negroids (DQA 1*0501, DQB1*0501, etc.),and those decreased northwards and originated probably in Southeast Asia (DQA1* 0601, DRB1*1202, etc.).It was found that these genes decreased both southwards and northwards (DQB1*0303, DRB1*0901,*1501,etc.) and originated probably in certain groups in mainland of Chinese Nation,and that HLA genes in different Chinese groups migrated from each other and amalgamated deeply,but Dais, Buyis etc were isolated from outside in some degree. Our results also supported that the Chinese Nation comprises two major populations of north and south.We proposed that the migration and mixing are the dominant driving force of the HLA gene flow while the genetic drift caused by isolation and the nature selection have an important influence on HLA genetic structure.
