| dc.description.abstract | HLA antigens were studied in 35 Thai patients suffering from active pulmonary tuberculosis. An increase in the frequency of HLA-Bw46 and -DR4 and a decrease in the frequency of HLA-B12 were found when compared with the matched controls. These findings suggest that the pathogenetic role of HLA-B12 is to confer resistance and that HLA-Bw46 and -DR4 are associated with susceptibility. In addition it provided further information on HLA antigen profiles in pulmonary tuberculosis patients in another ethnic group (viz. Thais). Conclusions regarding genetic control over therapeutic efficacy must await further study. | en_US |
