Distribution of HLA‐DQA1 and ‐DQB1 alleles and DQA1‐DQB1 genotypes among Senegalese patients with insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Transracial analysis is one method for distinguishing primary associations between insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and HLA II alleles from those related to linkage disequilibrium. Black people have different DR-DQ relationships from other races and are a useful group to investigate HLA-D regions associated with IDDM. In this study, we compared the frequencies of HLA-DQA1 and DQB1 alleles in Senegalese IDDM and control subjects. DQA1*0301 was positively associated with insulin-dependent diabetes mell… Show more

“…Also results in the current study agreed with Sabbah E. et al [26] , whom published that presently it is accepted that type 1 DM in children is associated with HLA DR3, DQB1 0201 and DR4, DQB1 0302. Whereas results in the current study are disagree with Ciss et al [27] , whom stated that there were no significant association between IDDM and any alleles of HLA-DRB1 locus. The disagreement is continuous with Vehik K. and Fourlanos S. [28,29] , they stated that interestingly, however, as T1D incidence increases, the percentage of those cases with the high-risk HLADR3/4 genotype seems to be decreasing.…”

“…The strongest markers of susceptibility to type 1 diabetes found in this study were the DQA1*0301 and DQB1*0201 phenotypes. These findings are consistent with data from international studies, supporting the hypothesis that these could be good markers in areas where the disease is relatively rare (Cisse et al. , 1996; Dorman et al.…”

“…Differences in disease associations between the Jamaican and white Caucasian populations were observed, however, resulting from differences in frequency of diseaseassociated DRB1 and DQ alleles and diversity of DRB1-DQ haplotypes between the populations. The results of the current study, together with those from our previous study of UK-resident Jamaicans, were compared with those from studies of African heritage populations from Senegal (West Africa) (Cisse et al , 1996), Zimbabwe (East Africa) (Garcia-Pacheco et al , 1992) and America (African-Americans) (Fernandez-Vina et al , 1993) and of British white Caucasians (Cavan et al , 1993) (Table 6).…”
