Original paper Prevalence of HLA-B27 antigen in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]
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 ...

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

Fifty years after the discovery of the association of HLA B27 with ankylosing spondylitis
The human lymphocyte antigen B27 (HLA B27) is a member of the HLA class I family of genes in the major histocompatibility complex whose name goes back to its discovery in studies of transplanted tissue compatibility.

Expanding the Genetic Framework: Insights into Non-HLA-B27 Contributions to Axial Spondylarthritis [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Spondylarthritis is a complex group of inflammatory diseases closely associated with the HLA-B27 antigen. However, the role of non-HLA-B27 alleles in the disease’s pathogenesis has gained significant scholarly attention in ...

Aetiology and pathogenesis of reactive arthritis: role of non-antigen-presenting effects of HLA-B27 [PDF]
Spondyloarthropathies are inflammatory diseases closely associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 by unknown mechanisms. One of these diseases is reactive arthritis (ReA), which is typically triggered by Gram-negative bacteria, which have ...

CD28 and CTLA4 polymorphisms associated with ankylosing spondylitis: a study in the context of HLA-B27 [PDF]
Background The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 gene is highly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). However, not everyone who carries the HLA-B27 antigen develops AS, indicating that factors beyond the HLA-B27 gene contribute to the disease’s ...
