HLA-B27 modulates intracellular growth of Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 mutants and production of cytokines in infected monocytic U937 cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis PT4 KS8822/88 replicates rapidly in HLA-B27-transfected human monocytic U937 cells. In this process, Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI-2) genes play a crucial role.

Allelic variation in HLA-B and HLA-C sequences and the evolution of the HLA-B alleles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Several new HLA-B (B8, B51, Bw62)- and HLA-C (Cw6, Cw7)-specific genes were isolated either as genomic cosmid or cDNA clones to study the diversity of HLA antigens.

The Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-B27 Peptidome in Vivo, in Spondyloarthritis-susceptible HLA-B27 Transgenic Rats and the Effect of Erap1 Deletion *

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Proteomics, 2017
HLA-B27 is a class I major histocompatibility (MHC-I) allele that confers susceptibility to the rheumatic disease ankylosing spondylitis (AS) by an unknown mechanism. ERAP1 is an aminopeptidase that trims peptides in the endoplasmic reticulum for binding

Original paper Prevalence of HLA-B27 antigen in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis

open access: yesRheumatology, 2015
Introduction: Human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) is considered as a risk factor for development of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The aim of this study was to analyse the prevalence of HLA-B27 antigen in JIA categories and its influence on ...

Evaluating Associations Between Ankylosing Spondylitis, Torque Teno Virus and Polymorphisms in Interleukin 6 and Vitamin D Receptor Genes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunogenetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The etiology of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is complex and not yet fully understood. Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), vitamin D and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play an important role in modulating immune response, and Torque teno virus is considered a marker of immune status. This case–control study aimed to investigate the predisposition to AS. A total

HLA-B27-Homodimer-Specific Antibody Modulates the Expansion of Pro-Inflammatory T-Cells in HLA-B27 Transgenic Rats.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
ObjectivesHLA-B27 is a common genetic risk factor for the development of Spondyloarthritides (SpA). HLA-B27 can misfold to form cell-surface heavy chain homodimers (B272) and induce pro-inflammatory responses that may lead to SpA pathogenesis.

Influence of TNF and IL17 Gene Polymorphisms on the Spondyloarthritis Immunopathogenesis, Regardless of HLA-B27, in a Brazilian Population

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2018
Background and Objectives Spondyloarthritis (SpA) represents a heterogeneous group of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases that have overlapping clinical features, genetic predisposition, and pathogenic mechanisms. Hence, we investigated, through a case-
