Time‐dependent variation of HLA‐antigen‐frequencies in fflV‐1‐infection (1983–1988)

Abstract: In a 5-year-study of HLA-phenotypes in 411 HIV-1-infected individuals, a progressive decrease of the formerly elevated frequency of HLA-DR5 has been observed. HLA-DR3 seems to have a protective effect. These results are discussed with respect to the mimicry-hypothesis of HLA and disease associations. Further preliminary results indicate that HIV-associated Kaposi's sarcoma could be associated with HLA-A28, and therefore might be a different etiologic entity than HIV-infection alone.

“…Epidemiological studies seem to support this assumption, because some reports have provided evidence for an association between MHC alleles or haplotypes and disease progression (35,66). More precisely, the haplotype A1-B8-DR3 and the alleles HLA-DR2 and HLA-DR5 have been associated with an accelerated progression to AIDS (19,33,34,40). Another example is the relation between the HLA-DR1 allele and Kaposi's sarcoma or the correlation between HLA-DR3 and the apparition of opportunistic infections (39).…”

“…Ofinterest is that when the A l , B8 alleles are split from DR3 (not a common occurrence) the susceptibility to increased rate of progression goes with A l , B8 and not DR3 (Mann et d, 1994). Other Class I alleles associated with rapid disease progression include HLA B35 and A24 (Cameron et al, 1990 (Jeannet et al 1989: Enlow et aI, 1983Depaoli et al 1986: Kuntz & Bruster, 1989. Mann et a1 (1994) have noted a marked influence of DR1 on the rate of progression to disease that exerts its effects early after seroconversion.…”

“…Resistance to infection in a cohort of repeatedly exposed female sex workers recently was reported to be associated with HLA-DRB1*01 [1]. Other HLA class II alleles have been associated with rapid HIV disease progression [2][3][4][5]. HLA class I genes also have been reported to exert a protective effect (reviewed in Westby et al [6]).…”
