“…Amino acids at positions 67, 97, 116, and 152 significantly and independently influenced the risk of developing BD. Oceania, and South America, where expression is low or nil (3,4). Early studies using microsatellite markers in Japanese, Greek, and Italian patients patients with BD showed that HLA-B was the strongest association in each group.…”

“…HLA-B*5101 allele expression is associated with Behçet disease [31,32], a multisystemic inflammatory disorder possibly of autoimmune nature [33,34]. The linkage is very suggestive of involvement of peptide presentation function, since Behçet disease is not associated with HLA-B*5201, which differs by only two amino acids located in the pocket B of the peptidebinding groove [34].…”

“…The predominant BD susceptibility locus is the MHC on chromosome 6 (2, 3), which contains the strongest known risk factor for BD, the MHC class I (MHC-I) allele HLA-B*51 (2)(3)(4)(5). Several recent studies have expanded the list of genes or loci implicated in the pathophysiology of BD, which now includes HLA-B, IL10, IL23R, HLA-A, CCR1, STAT4, endoplasmic reticulum amino peptidase 1 (ERAP1), the killer lectinlike receptor cluster on chromosome 12, and, most recently, TLR4 and MEFV (2,3,6,7).…”
