The Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) genes, playing key roles in mediating the immune response, especially HLA class II alleles were suggested to play a role in the activation of autoreactive T-cells in aplastic anemia (AA). Previous studies in different ethnic groups have indicated that some of HLA-A,-B,-DRB1 alleles had a protective or susceptive association with the prevalence, pathogenesis and development of AA. HLA class II genes, especially HLA-DQB1 and-DPB1 alleles or haplotypes at high-resolution level associated with AA have not been fully identified in northern Chinese Han populations. The aim of this study was to identify association of the variations in HLA class II region with AA in northern Chinese Han population. A recent case-control study, including 96 AA patients and 824 healthy controls was performed. The high-resolution HLA genotyping was conducted by PCR-SBT,-SSO and NGS-ION S5TM platform. Based on genotypic data of the three loci, haplotype estimation was carried out. HLA-DRB1*15:01 (Pc = 2.87 x 10(-3); OR = 2.11, 95% CI = 1.45-3.07) and HLA-DQB1*06:02 (Pc = 1.86 x 10(-2); OR = 2.01, 95% CI = 1.32-3.06) were the risk and predisposition alleles to AA in northern Chinese Han after considering multiple testing. Moreover, the HLA-DRB1*15:01-DQB1*06:02 (Pc = 4.90 x 10(-3); OR = 2.09, 95% CI = 1.37-3.19) and HLA-DRB1*14:05-DQB1*05:03 (Pc = 2.65 x 10(-2); OR = 2.82, 95%CI = 1.45-5.50) haplotypes had direct strong relevance to AA and were the susceptible haplotypes. HLADPB1 alleles and 23 polymorphic amino acid residues spanning exon 2 similar to 4 of DP beta 1 molecules have showed no statistically significant associations between AA and controls. The present findings establish a novel link between inherited HLA-DRB1,-DQB1,-DPB1 risk alleles and haplotypes in northern Chinese Han with AA, and open new avenues for development of targeted therapies to prevent or redirect immunopathology in AA.
