  • Title: [The genetic markers of psoriasis].
    Author: Rakhmatov AB, Chichenina IV, Dizik LI, Bodrova NN.
    Journal: Vestn Dermatol Venerol; 1990; (5):40-3. PubMed ID: 2402941.
    Abstract:
    HLA-A, B, and C antigens were studied in 220 psoriasis patients by Terasaki and McLelland's lymphocytotoxic method. The value of relative risk for HLA-B13 and HLA-B17 antigens was estimated: 5.3 and 7.7, respectively. The detected regularities in histocompatibility antigens distribution suggest that typing of psoriasis patients may help predict, with some certainty, the course of the disease, its pattern, and clinical picture.
