Abstract:
One hundred unrelated healthy indi- viduals of the Mulao nationality were ty- ped for HLA-A, -B, -C, -DR and -DQ locus antigens. The distribution of HLA class I antigens is similar to that of Zhu- ang, Miao and Yao nationalities in the Guangxi Area and to that of the Han po- pulations in southern China. For example, A2, A9 and A11 are much more frequent in A locus, as well as B40, B13 and Bw46 in B locus and Cw3. Cw1 (including Cx46) and Cw7 in C locus. The antigen B17 sho- wing a lower frequency in Mulao natio- nality than in other populations in sou- thern China is quite especial. The distri- bution of DR and DQ antigens in HLA class II shows still more different between Mulao and Zhuang nationalities. It is not clear whether the origin of the two na- tionalities or other factors give rise to their difference, and it needs further study.
