Abstract:
Objective To probe into the association between the polymorphisms of HLA DRB1, DQB1 alleles and esophageal squamous cell carcinomas and then to further examine the features of their immunogenetics. Methods The polymorphisms of HLA DRB1, DQB1 alleles were typed by sequence specific primer based on polymerase chain reaction in 42 patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer and 136 normal control subjects. Results Allele frequency of HLA DRB1 *0901 allele was significantly higher in esophageal cancer patients than that in normal controls ( 0.250 0 vs 0.139 7 , P = 0.028 , odd ratio= 2.053 , etiologic fraction= 0.128 2 ) and so was allele frequency of HLA DQB1 * 0301 ( 0.297 6 vs 0.187 5 , P = 0.046 , odd ratio 1.835 , etiologic fraction 0.135 4 ). There was no association between the rested alleles of HLA DRB1 and DQB1 alleles in the patients. Conclusions Individuals carrying HLA DRB1 * 0901 and/or DQB1 * 0301 may be susceptible to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and nucleotide sequences of these two alleles were in accordance with the corresponded allele sequence (exon 2) of genebank.
