HLA*A2 confers mortality risk for cardiovascular disease in Pimans

Abstract: A sample of 1465 full heritage Piman Indians from Arizona were typed for the serological antigens of the HLA class I loci and then incorporated into a survival study that ended December 31, 1991. The total follow-up time was 11,749 person-years with an average of 8.0 years per person. During the study 298 persons died, 54 from cardiovascular disease (CVD). Allele HLA*A2 conferred a 4.94 fold rate for death from CVD (95% C.I. 1.91-12.77). When controlled for the potential confounding variables, cholesterol, mea… Show more

“…Additionally, high frequencies of HLA A2 [10, 25], DR4 [25, 26, 27]and DQ7 [28]have been found in some populations with T2DM. HLA-A2 has also been associated with microalbuminuria in people with T1DM [29], and with mortality from cardiovascular disease in Pima Indians [30]. Finally, an increased occurrence of HLA-B62 has been reported in Blacks with T1DM and DESRD [31].…”

“…The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci have played an important role in the many epidemiological studies that have been performed. It has been reported that HLA‐A*02 is associated with Type 2 diabetes, an allele that also confers a mortality risk for cardiovascular disease (3, 4) . A meta‐analysis revealed an association between the most common class II allele, HLA‐DRB1*1402, and rheumatoid arthritis (5).…”

“…When controlled for potential confounding variables, cholesterol, average blood pressure, smoking, body mass index, rheumatoid factor titter, and nephropathy, the mortality ratio (MRR) was 5.42 (95% C. 1.98-14.82) There was no relationship between mortality that was statistically significant with HLA-A or other HLA-B alleles, or for causes of death not related to cardiovascular disease. (Williams et al 1996) (Howard et al 1986;Klemp et al 1988;Rudwaleit et al 1995;Ayed et al 2004;Cortes et al 2004) (Collins et al 2017). Those number of TB patients contrast with the research of HLA correlation with TB in Indonesia.…”
