HLA Class II Allele, Haplotype, and Genotype Associations with Type 1 Diabetes in Benin: A Pilot Study

Abstract: Background Several studies have reported the implication of HLA-DR/DQ loci in the susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D). Since no such study has yet been performed in Benin, this pilot one aimed at assessing HLA class II allele, haplotype, and genotype associations with T1D. Material and Methods Class II HLA genotyping was performed in 51 patients with T1D and 51 healthy unrelated controls by means of the PCR-SSP method. The diagnosis of T1D was set up according to American Diabetes Association criteria. Odd… Show more

“…Some common alleles at HLA Class II loci (HLA‐DRB1, ‐DQA1, and ‐DQB1) are primarily and jointly associated with the disease, as shown by a large number of case‐control and family‐based association studies from different populations . These three loci have both haplotype‐ and genotype‐specific effects and act as a complex superlocus .…”

“…HLA -DQA105:01 and HLA-DR3 genotyping was performed with PCR-sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) . 11 . In a 20 μl mixture of 2.5 µl DNA, 1.5 µl from each forward and reverse of the primer, 5 µl master mix and 9.5 µl nuclease free water.…”

“…In a 20 μl mixture of 2.5 µl DNA, 1.5 µl from each forward and reverse of the primer, 5 µl master mix and 9.5 µl nuclease free water. The DNA amplification for HLA-DQA1 is includes an initial denaturation of 2 min in 94°C, 32 cycles of amplification (every cycle consists of a denaturation of 30 s in 94°C, a hybridization of primers during 30 s in 63°C, and an extension of 30 s in 72°C), and a final extension of 10 min in72°C, 11 . While the process of DNA amplification for HLA-DR3 is same as DQA1, (exception the hybridization temperature was 52°C), then the PCR products were separated in 1.5 % agarose electrophoresis system using ethidium bromide then visualized with the gel documentation, with 100 bp-ladder (Bioneer, Korea) and photographed.…”
