Human leukocyte antigen HLADRB1 determinants susceptibility to gastroesophageal reflux disease

Abstract: -Background -Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is characterized by diverse symptoms. There is an evidence for a genetic component to GERD as supported by familial aggregation of this disease. Objective -To investigate whether certain human leucocyte antigen genes HLA-DRB1 are associated with GERD. Methods -Patients and controls were prospectively recruited from GIT center at Al-Kindy Teaching Hospital (Baghdad-Iraq)

“…There is a racial difference in GERD disease prevalence due to presence of many genes that affect the disease development. 17,18 Mahdi et al, 19 reported that HLA-DRB1 *15:01 had an association with GERD patients infected with H. pylori. Regarding recombination that is most commonly occurs in or around genes and haplotyoe structure strongly affects synapsis will occur that facilitates subsequent recombination events to occur.…”

“…7 One study found that there is an association between HLA-DRB1 *15:01 and GERD in patients with H. pylori positive infection. 8 Other study demonstrated that HLA B7 may increased susceptibility for Barrett's oesophagus. 9 HLA-DR expression is found in the oesophageal tissue of patients with ongoing inflammation in the lamina propria and submucosa of the oesophageal as a result of cytokine release.…”
