We studied 142 RA patients and 123 controls matched for age, sex, and ethnicity. HLA-DRB1 genotyping and HLA-DRB1*04 subtypes were performed using polymerase chain reaction/sequence-specific primers. Association was assessed based on the χ (2) test and odds ratio with 95% confidence interval. For multiple comparisons, p value was corrected (p (c)) with Bonferroni test. Two alleles, HLA-DRB1*04 (p=0.045, p(c)=NS) and HLA-DRB1*10 (p=0.021, p(c)=NS), were found to have increased frequencies in RA patients compared to controls. In contrast HLA-DRB1*08 allele was found to have a decreased frequency in patients compared to controls (p=0.044, p(c)=NS). Molecular subtyping of the most prevalent allele (DRB1*04) revealed increased frequencies of HLA-DRB1*04:05 in patients compared to controls (p=0.013, p(c)=NS) whereas HLA-DRB1*04:02 showed a protective effect (p=0.005, p(c)=0.04). Moreover, stratified analyses indicated statistically significant associations between HLA-DRB1*04 allele and anti-cyclic peptides antibodies positivity (ACPA(+)) and rheumatoid factor positivity (RF(+); p(c)=0.03, for both subgroups), HLA-DRBI*10 and ACPA(+) and the presence of another autoimmune disease (p(c)=0.05 and p(c)=0.007, respectively), and HLA-DRB1*04:05 and RF(+) and erosion (p(c)=0.005 and p(c)=0.049; respectively). A significant decrease in the frequency of the DRB1*04:02 allele was observed in patients with ACPA(+) and RF(+) subgroups (p(c)=0.04 and p(c)=0.02, respectively). Our results showed that there was a trend of positive association of HLA-DRB1*04 and HLA-DRB1*10 with RA as such and significant associations with the disease severity in the south Tunisian population."xsd:string |
