RESUMEN

Bullous pemphigoid (BP), although a rare disease, is the most frequent subepidermal autoimmune disorder. Treatment with gliptins, used for type 2 diabetes, was reported as associated with BP onset. To identify HLA alleles that may reflect a higher susceptibility to BP in the Italian population, we analysed 30 patients affected by idiopathic bullous pemphigoid (IBP) and 86 gliptin-associated BP (GABP) patients. A significant association between HLA-DQB1*03:01 allele and IBP and GABP patients was found. Of note, both IBP and GABP were significantly associated with one of the following haplotypes: DRB1*11:01, DRB3*02:02, DQA1*05:05, DQB1*03:01 or DRB1*11:04, DRB3*02:02, DQA1*05:05 and DQB1*03:01. These data identify, for the first time, potential markers of susceptibility to BP in the Italian population, especially when associated with gliptin intake.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Nasal polyposis (NP) is a common and recurrent condition of the sinonasal cavity which has significant impact on patients' quality of life. NP pathophysiology involves a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and immunological factors. Several studies have explored the association between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II alleles and NP, but the results have been conflicting. The aim of this meta-analysis is to investigate the association between HLA class II alleles, specifically HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQB1, and HLA-DRB1and NP risk. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted using electronic databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library, to identify studies investigating the association between HLA class II alleles and NP. Eligible studies were identified by specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association between HLA class II alleles and NP risk. A random-effects model was used to calculate the pooled OR and corresponding 95% CI, and a study required a heterogeneity assessment value I2 < 25% to be considered for analysis. STUDY DESIGN: Meta-analysis. RESULTS: A total of four studies were included in this meta-analysis, involving a total of 258 NP alleles and 802 control alleles. The analysis indicated that DQA1*0201 (OR = 3.08, 95% CI [1.70, 5.59]) and DRB1*7 (OR = 2.04, 95% CI [1.14, 3.66]) were significantly associated with increased risk of NP. The analysis of the NP risk alleles DQA1*0201 and DRB1*7 had an I2 < 0% representing low heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis with LFK indices showed minor asymmetry in either allele. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis provides evidence that the HLA-DQA1*0201 and HLA-DRB1*7 alleles are risk factors for the development of NP. These findings could contribute to a better understanding of the genetic predisposition of NP and may have implications for the development of novel approaches for the prevention and treatment of this condition.

RESUMEN

Background and Objectives: Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) represents one of the most prevalent bacterial sexually transmitted diseases. This study aims to explore the relationship between HLA alleles/genotypes/haplotypes and C. trachomatis infection to better understand high-risk individuals and potential complications. Materials and Methods: This prospective study recruited participants from Transylvania, Romania. Patients with positive NAAT tests for C. trachomatis from cervical/urethral secretion or urine were compared with controls regarding HLA-DR and -DQ alleles. DNA extraction for HLA typing was performed using venous blood samples. Results: Our analysis revealed that the presence of the DRB1*13 allele significantly heightened the likelihood of C. trachomatis infection (p = 0.017). Additionally, we observed that individuals carrying the DRB1*01/DRB1*13 and DQB1*03/DQB1*06 genotype had increased odds of C. trachomatis infection. Upon adjustment, the association between the DRB1*01/DRB1*13 genotype and C. trachomatis remained statistically significant. Conclusions: Our findings underscore the importance of specific HLA alleles and genotypes in influencing susceptibility to C. trachomatis infection. These results highlight the intricate relationship between host genetics and disease susceptibility, offering valuable insights for targeted prevention efforts and personalized healthcare strategies.

RESUMEN

Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD), particularly Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Basedow-Graves disease (BGD) are diseases of global public health concern, characterized by autoimmune attacks on the thyroid gland, leading to hypothyroidism in HT and hyperthyroidism in BGD. We conducted a study between 2019 and 2021 in northwestern Transylvania (Romania) on patients with HT and with BGD compared to the control group. The aim of the study was to investigate the correlations of HLA class II alleles with AITD by identifying potential genetic susceptibility factors such as HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1 genes in patients diagnosed with HT and BGD. Various molecular biology methods, including SSP-PCR low-resolution and PCR-SSO were employed to analyze DNA samples from patients and control subjects. Our study revealed the influence of the HLA-DRB1*03/*16 genotype as a genetic susceptibility factor for HT, a similar influence regarding BGD being observed for the HLA-DRB1*03 allele group, DRB1*03/*16 genotype, and the DRB1*03/DQB1*06 haplotype. The only protective factor detected in our study was the HLA-DRB1*13 allele group, for both HT and BGD. By elucidating any specific allele or genotype associations that might contribute to the development of AITD, our study can contribute to the prevention and early detection of these diseases.
