    Abstract:
    AIM: To ascertain whether HLA antigens are associated with morphological forms of chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made of HLA distribution in 122 patients with proliferative and nonproliferative forms of CGN at different stages of fibroplastic transformation and addition of the tubulointerstitial component. Testing of HLA antigens of class I was conducted by lymphocytotoxicity; specificity of DRBI genes was investigated by DNA polymerase chain reaction. The control group consisted of 341 healthy citizens of Novosibirsk. RESULTS: HLA-associations typical for each morphological CGN form, characteristic differences between them were established. CONCLUSION: The tables were plotted allowing estimation of probability of each of CGN morphological forms.
