HLA antigens in drug‐induced parkinsonism

Abstract: The results of two epidemiological studies suggest a hereditary predisposition to develop drug-induced parkinsonism. We investigated human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antigen prevalence rates in patients with neuroleptic-induced parkinsonism. Fifty-two male, white, neuroleptic-treated, chronic in-patients with DSM-III-diagnosed schizophrenia were examined for the presence of parkinsonism. Subjects were tested for 23 type A, 43 type B, 4 type C, and 10 type DR HLA antigens. The group of schizophrenic patients with … Show more

“…The first one is a close proximity between HLA-B44 antigen and genes that code for neuroleptic induced-parkinsonism. The second could be the fact that the HLA system mediates an autoimmune genesis of neuroleptic-induced parkinsonism (Metzer et al, 1989). Finally, these authors have also suggested that HLA antigens on postsynaptic neurons might influence dopaminergic transmission by acting as cell surface receptors.…”

“…Another risk factor is female gender,8,15-17 suggesting that estrogen suppresses the expression of dopamine receptors;18 however, the exact mechanism underlying the gender difference in DIP remains to be clarified. Genetic factors are also thought to be involved in the development of DIP because not all patients taking dopamine receptor blocking agents (DRBAs) develop parkinsonism 19-21. Genome-wide screening showed that the genes associated with the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor signaling pathway are involved in neuroleptic-induced TD in schizophrenic patients,21 suggesting that genetic factors predispose to both DIP and TD.…”

“…This suggests that genetic predisposition might play a role in the development of DIP. Shiroma et al showed genetic polymorphisms in genes involved in dopamine transmission [29] whereas Metzer et al found a higher prevalence of HLA antigen B44 in DIP patients [30] and there have been described families with a hereditary predisposition to DIP [31]. Many drugs have been described to cause parkinsonism but there are several factor that modulate this risk.…”
