Autoinflammation and HLA-B27: Beyond Antigen Presentation [PDF]
HLA-B27 associated disorders comprise a group of inflammatory conditions which have in common an association with the HLA class I molecule, HLA-B27. Given this association, these diseases are classically considered disorders of adaptive immunity. However, mounting data are challenging this assumption and confirming that innate immunity plays a more ...

Does HLA-B27 Status Influence Ixekizumab Efficacy in Axial Spondyloarthritis? Results From the COAST-V, COAST-W, and COAST-X Trials [PDF]
Introduction The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 is associated with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and is a predictor of response to tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. However, limited data are available on HLA-B27 and interleukin-17 inhibitors.
