Association of HLA‐DR‐DQ alleles, haplotypes, and diplotypes with type 1 diabetes in Saudis
View through CrossRef
AbstractAimsType 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that affects many children worldwide. Genetic factors and environmental triggers play crucial interacting roles in the aetiology. This study aimed to assess the contribution of HLA‐DRB1‐DQA1‐DQB1 alleles, haplotypes, and genotypes to the risk of T1D among Saudis.MethodsA total of 222 children with T1D and 342 controls were genotyped for HLA‐DRB1, ‐DQA1, and ‐DQB1 using reverse sequence‐specific oligonucleotide (rSSO) Lab Type high definition (HD) kits. Alleles, haplotypes, and diplotypes were compared between cases and controls using the SAS statistical package.ResultsDRB1*03:01‐DQA1*05:01‐DQB1*02:01 (32.4%; OR = 3.68; Pc < .0001), DRB1*04:05‐DQA1*03:02‐DQB1*03:02 (6.6%; OR = 6.76; Pc < .0001), DRB1*04:02‐DQA1*03:01‐DQB1*03:02 (6.0%; OR = 3.10; Pc = .0194), DRB1*04:01‐DQA1*03:01‐DQB1*03:02 (3.7%; OR = 4.22; Pc = .0335), and DRB1*04:05‐DQA1*03:02‐DQB1*02:02 (2.7%; OR = 6.31; Pc = .0326) haplotypes were significantly increased in cases compared to controls, whereas DRB1*07:01‐DQA1*02:01‐DQB1*02:02 (OR = 0.41; Pc = .0001), DRB1*13:01‐DQA1*01:03‐DQB1*06:03 (OR = 0.05; Pc < .0001), DRB1*15:01‐DQA1*01:02‐DQB1*06:02 (OR = 0.03; Pc < .0001), and DRB1*11:01‐DQA1*05:05‐DQB1*03:01 (OR = 0.07; Pc = .0291) were significantly decreased.
