HLA-DR4 may determine expression of actinic prurigo in British patients.
Journal of Investigative Dermatology 1996 Februrary
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) associations have been reported in Amerindian patients with actinic prurigo. To determine if similar associations are present in the British Caucasoid population with actinic prurigo, 26 patients underwent serological typing for HLC Class I and II antigens. DNA analysis by both sequence-specific priming and group-specific amplification with single-stranded oligonucleotide probe hybridization was used to confirm the DR and DQ typing and to perform DR4 subtyping. All patients were DR4 positive, and 25 of 26 patients were DQ7 positive. DR4 subtyping revealed 12 of 20 patients tested to be DRB1*0407. A nonsignificant association was also found with HLA B55 that is in linkage disequilibrium with DRB1*0407. No HLA associations were found in 25 British Caucasoid patients with polymorphic light eruption. DRB1*0407 is rare in European Caucasoids without actinic prurigo, and HLA-DR4 may have an important role in determining expression of this disease.
