MICA molecules interact with NKG2D, augmenting the activation of natural killer cells, CD8(+) alpha beta T cells, and gamma delta T cells. MICA allelic variation is thought to be associated with disease susceptibility and immune response to transplants. We investigated MICA allelic variations and linkage disequilibrium with HLA-A, B, and DRB1 loci on 110 parental haplotypes from 29 African-American families. PCR/sequence-specific oligonucleotide probing (SSOP) was used to define MICA polymorphisms in exons 2, 3, and 4. Ambiguous allelic combinations were resolved by sequencing exons 2, 3, and 4. Exon 5 polymorphisms were analyzed by size sequencing. For HLA-A, B and DRB1 typing, low-resolution PCR/SSOP and allelic PCR/sequence-specific priming techniques were used. Twelve MICA alleles were observed, the most frequent of which were MICA*008, MICA*004, and MICA*002, with gene frequencies of 28.2, 26.4, and 25.5%, respectively. Thirty-eight HLA-B-MICA haplotypic combinations were uncovered, 22 of which have not been reported in the HLA homozygous typing cell lines from the 10th International Histocompatibility Workshop. Significant positive linkage disequilibria were found in 8 HLA-B-MICA haplotypes. Furthermore, haplotypes bearing HLA-B*1503, *1801, *4901, *5201, *5301, and *5703 were found to segregate with at least two different MICA alleles. Our results provide new data about MICA genetic polymorphisms in African-Americans, which will form the basis for future studies of MICA alleles in allogeneic stem cell transplantation outcome."xsd:string |
