This study genotyped HLA-DPB1 alleles in women with and without endometriosis and found no significant difference in allele frequencies, suggesting HLA-DPB1 is not associated with the condition.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the hereditary susceptibility in patients with endometriosis by way of genotyping of HLA-DPB1 alleles. METHODS: The allelic types of HLA-DPB1 were detected by sequence-based typing (SBT) in 38 patients with endometriosis and 36 healthy women as the control. RESULT: Significant differences in the frequency of HLA-DRB1 allele was not observed between endometriotic patients and normal subjects. CONCLUSION: HLA-DPB1 allele may not be related to endometriosis.
