PG - 107-115 LID - 10.3390/cimb43010009 [doi] AB - The effects of amino acid variants encoded by the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II on the development of classical type 1 diabetes (T1D) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) have not been fully elucidated. We retrospectively investigated the HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 genes of 72 patients with classical T1D and 102 patients with LADA in the Japanese population and compared the frequencies of HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 alleles between these patients and the Japanese populations previously reported by another institution. We also performed a blind association analysis with all amino acid positions in classical T1D and LADA, and compared the associations of HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 amino acid positions in classical T1D and LADA. The frequency of DRss-Phe-13 was significantly higher and those of DRss-Arg-13 and DQss-Gly-70 were significantly lower in patients with classical T1D and LADA than in controls. The frequencies of DRss-His-13 and DQss-Glu-70 were significantly higher in classical T1D patients than in controls. The frequency of DRss-Ser-13 was significantly lower and that of DQss-Arg-70 was significantly higher in LADA patients than in controls. HLA-DRss1 position 13 and HLA-DQss1 position 70 could be critical amino acid positions in the development of classical T1D and LADA.
