A cis-eQTL of HLA-DPB1 Affects Susceptibility to Type 1 Autoimmune Hepatitis.


ABSTRACT: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory liver disease characterized by an autoimmune reaction to hepatocytes. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the 3' untranslated region of HLA-DPB1, rs9277534, is associated with HLA-DPB1 expression. rs9277534 has been linked to hepatitis B virus recovery/persistence and the risk of graft-versus-host disease with HLA-DPB1 mismatching transplantation of hematopoietic cells, but its role along with that of HLA-DP expression in AIH have not been fully clarified. We genotyped rs9277534 in 146 Japanese patients with AIH and 326 healthy subjects. HLA-DPB1 expression was determined by quantitative PCR. HLA-DPB1 expression was significantly higher for rs9277534G than for rs9277534A (P?
