TI  - Putative linkage between HLA class I polymorphism and the susceptibility to 
      malignant melanoma.
PG  - S39
AB  - Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) frequencies in 67 melanoma patients were compared 
      to 120 controls in Japan. The frequency of HLA-B13 was increased in melanoma 
      patients compared to controls and was particularly common in nodular melanoma 
      HLA-B61 was decreased in melanoma patients. Almost 50% of acral lentiginous 
      melanoma patients expressed HLA-B51 compared to 0% of nodular melanomas.
