Positivity and genotype distribution of HLA-B27 antigen in 7 829 patients with suspected ankylosing spondylitis
To analyze the positivity of human leukocyte surface antigen-B27 (HLA-B27) in patients with suspected ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and their relatives in Chongqing to understand the gender-specific distribution of HLA-B27 genotypes in the patients.
Methods
2
We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 7 829 patients with suspected AS and some of their relatives
who were diagnosed in Chongqing between January 1
2018 and November 29
2019. HLA-B27 genotypes were determined using a sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction (PCR-SSP).
Results
2
Of the 7 829 patients
2 112 were positive for HLA-B27 antigen
with a positive rate of 26. 98%. The positive rate of HLA-B27 antigen was significantly higher in the male than in the female patients (33.87%
vs
18.58%
P
<
0.01). A total of 1 655 (78. 36%) patients had a B* 2704 genotype and 358 (16.95%) had a B* 2705/07 genotype of HLA-B27 antigen. Forty-six of the HLA-B27-positive patients were found to have ocular diseases
among whom 36 (78.26%) patients had a B* 2704 genotype; uveitis was the most frequent ocular disease in these patients (34/46).
Conclusion
2
The patients with suspected AS in Chongqing have a significantly higher rate HLA- B27 antigen positivity than the normal population
and the positive rate is significantly higher in male than in female patients. The HLA-B27 genotypes are predominantly B * 2704 and B * 2705/07
and the former is associated with AS susceptibility. Uveitis is common in HLA-B27-positive AS patients with ocular diseases
