ABSTRACT: This study was aimed to investigate the distribution and implication of tap1 (transporter associated with antigen processing) and tap2 loci allelic and genotypic frequencies. The distribution of tap1 and tap2 loci allelic and genotypic frequencies in 339 random samples of healthy Chinese Hans was analyzed by TaqMan PCR. Several genetic information about power of discrimination, cumulative DP, polymorphism information content, expected heterozygosity and observed heterozygosity were calculated. The results indicated that 5 tap1 alleles (tap1*0101, 020101, 020102, 0301 and 0401) and 4 tap2 alleles (tap2*0101, 0102, 0103 and 0201) were detected in all samples. 8 tap1 genotypes were found which account for 53.3% of the theoretic genotype and 6 tap2 genotypes were found which account for 60% of the theoretic genotype. The genotyping results of tap1 and tap2 both conform to the Hardy-Weinberg expectations (p > 0.05). Tap1*0101 (79.79%) and tap2*0101 (82.74%) are the most common alleles in Chinese Hans. It is concluded that tap1*0101 and tap2*0101 are most common alleles in Chinese Hans, tap1 and tap2 loci carry some power of individual discrimination and polymorphism information content. These two locl can be used for the research in the fields of human genetics, linkage analysis of genetic disease genes, paternity test and individual identification and so on.

ABSTRACT: According to the human platelet alloantigens (HPA) polymorphisms in five systems, the distributions of HPA-1 -3, 5, and 15 systems in 1 000 Chinese donors were carried out by using a polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) method. The genetic distance and phylogenetic tree between Chinese Hans and other populations were estimated by using DISPAN and PHYLIP software. As presented by the phylogenetic tree, Asian had a convergence with European first, and grouped together with African. Beninese which came from Africa was on the top of dendrogram. Indian was located between Asian and European. Brazilian was converged with other Europe populations. Oceanian Polynexiya had been shown specifically to cluster with Asia populations. These results proved the "out of Africa theory" from one side, and it also confirmed that early migration of Asian is from south to southeast, and east Asia., thus it is probable that Europeans are migrated from south to north, and west Europe. As genetic distance was estimated effectively by HPA systems, HPA systems could serve as the genetic marker in human migration and evolution research.

ABSTRACT: To study the polymorphism of human platelet alloantigens HPA-3 and HPA-9w in the Chinese Han population.
A total of 1000 unrelated Chinese Han blood donors from different provinces of China were genotyped for HPA-3 and HPA-9w using PCR-sequence specific primer assay.
Gene frequencies of 1000 Chinese Hans for HPA-3a and HPA-3b were 0.5935 and 0.4065 respectively, and all of them were HPA-9a positive. The distributions of HPA-3, HPA-9w of Chinese Hans which detected by chi-square criterion fit Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. There were significant differences of the HPA-3 alleles gene frequency between Guangdong province and other five investigated provinces which included Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Zhejiang, Yunnan and Jiangsu. In comparison to other ethnic groups, no significant differences were observed in the distributions of HPA-3 except the Vietnamese and Australian.
The results show that the chance of HPA-3 incompatibility were 0.3661 in random transfusion, and also provide a basis for researching on alloimmune thrombocytopenia and HPA-matched transfusion.

ABSTRACT: A total of 1,000 Chinese blood donors were typed for human platelet antigens (HPA) using a sequence specific primers -polymerase chain reaction (PCR-SSP) based HPA genotyping method. An individual with a rare HPA-10w(a+b+) genotype was found. In order to confirm the typing results, a fragment of HPA-10 gene was amplified by PCR and then sequenced. Sequencing data showed that a single G to A substitution at nucleotide 263 occurred, resulting in amino acid change from Arg(CGA) to Gln(CAA) at position 62 of GPa protein. The substitution generated antigenic specificity HPA-10bw. The detection of an HPA-10bw allele in the Chinese population suggests that this rare allele should be considered in platelet alloimmunization, such as neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT), post-transfusion thrombocytopenic purpura (PTP) and post-transfusion refractoriness to platelets (PTR).

ABSTRACT: Human platelet alloantigens (HPA) are specific antigens carried by platelet glycoproteins, which genes showing single nucleotide polymorphism. HPA can induce alloantibodies bringing about alloimmune response. They play important roles in post-transfusion refractoriness to platelets, post-transfusion thrombocytopenic purpura, fetomaternal alloimmune thrombocytopenia, and graft-versus-host disease. Because of their side effects in clinical blood-transfusion, there were a great deal of studies on HPA during last few decades. This review focuses on the nomenclature of HPA, the polymorphisms of platelet glycoproteins, HPA typing of the serological and molecular technology, as well as the mechanism of alloimmunization to HPA and correlated diseases.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the association between curative effects of interferon-alpha and partial human leucocyte antigen (HLA) II alleles in chronic viral hepatitis B.
Sixty patients with chronic viral hepatitis B in Shanghai were treated with a standard course of treatment with interferon-alpha for 6 mo. HLA-DRB1, -DQA1, and -DQB1 alleles were detected by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) method.
Frequencies of HLA-DRB1*04 (P<0.025) and HLA-DQA1*0303 (P<0.01) in non-responders were significantly higher than those in partial and complete responders. Frequencies of HLA-DQA1*0505 (P<0.025) and HLA-DQB1*0301 (P<0.005) in partial and complete responders were significantly higher than those in non-responders.
Non-response to interferon-alpha therapy is positively correlated with HLA-DRB1*04 and HLA-DQA1*0303, and negatively correlated with HLA-DQA1*0505 and -DQB1*0301 in patient with chronic viral hepatitis B. HLA II genes of the identification alleles provide a method for evaluating outcome of interferon-alpha treatment.

ABSTRACT: This study is to investigate genetic polymorphisms and haplotypes of microsatellite locus in the exon 5 of the MICA gene and intron 1 of the MICB gene based on 106 samples of Guangzhou Han Population by polymerase chain reaction and fluorescent technique (6-FAM). The corresponding haplotype frequencies, linkage disequilibria values and relative linkage disequilibria values were estimated based on population data. The results show that the genotype distributions of MICA and MICB microsatellite meet Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in Guangdong Han population. In total, 5 alleles of MICA microsatellite locus and 14 alleles of MICB microsatellite locus were observed. MICA A5 was the most common allele (0.2877), whereas A4 was the least popular one (0.1321). MICB CA14 was the most common allele (0.3255), and CA19 and CA28 were the least popular ones (0.0047). CA27 was not observed. Twenty-one kinds of MICA-MICB haplotypes occurred at frequencies of more than 1% (linkage disequilibria value>0). The common MICA-MICB haplotypes were A5-CA14 (16.73%) , A5.1- CA18 (8.75%), A4- CA26(3.76%),A9-CA15(3.66%) and A6-CA21(2.61%) (chi(2)>3.84, P<0.05) , and they were strong linkage disequilibria. The polymorphisms and haplotypes distributions of MICA and MICB microsatellite locus in Guangzhou Han population have their own genetic characteristics. The microsatellite locus of the exon5 of the MICA gene and intron 1 of the MICB gene could be used as the genetic markers in the studies of anthropology, linkage analysis of genetic disease genes, individual identification and paternity test in forensic medicine.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the genetic polymorphism of HLA-DRB1 locus in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population and analyze the characteristic of the allele frequency distribution in comparison with that of other populations.
The technique of polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) and reverse polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotide probe (PCR-SSOP) was adopted in genotyping a sample of 626 unrelated healthy individuals collected from a Chinese Han population in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area. HLA-DRB1*0101-1001, DRB3, DRB4 and DRB5 were detected. The allele frequency of HLA-DRB1 was calculated, and the allele frequency distribution of HLA-DRB1 in this population was compared with the results from other populations.
HLA-DRB1*0101, 0301, 0701, 09012, 1001, 1201, 1202, 1301/02, 1303/04, 1401/04/05, 1402/03/1305, 1501/02, 16021 and 04xx, 08xx were detected in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population. The common HLA-DRB1*allele included 09012(17.97%), 04xx(12.53%), 1202(11.42%) and 1501/02(11.02%). The polymorphism information content is 0.9024, and expected heterozygosity is 0.9634 in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population.
The HLA-DRB1 distribution of Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population shares some genetic characteristic with other Han populations, but it exhibits its own characteristic, suggesting the intermediate state of this population between the southern and northern Han populations. The polymorphism of HLA-DRB1 of Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population is the most abundant one in this study.

ABSTRACT: This study is to investigate HLA haplotypes in Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population based on 166 families by serological and molecular biological HLA typing methods and to analyze the distribution characteristic of HLA haplotypes. The results showed that allele frequencies of more than 10% for HLA antigens were A2, A11, A24, B13, B46, B60, DRB1 *04, DRB1 *08, DRB1* 09, DRB1 * 12 and DRB1 * 15. In the analysis of HLA haplotypes, 128 kinds of A-B haplotypes and 182 kinds of B-DRB1 haplotypes were found, comprising 19.28% (128/664) and 27.41%(182/664) of total theoretical haplotypes, respectively. 18 kinds of A-B haplotypes and 23 kinds of B-DRB1 haplotypes occurred at frequencies of more than 0.5% (linkage disequilibrium value, delta > 0) .351 kinds of A-B-DRB1 haplotypes were found, comprising 52.86% (351/664) of total theoretical haplotypes, and 8 kinds of A-B-DRB1 haplotypes occurred at frequencies of more than 0.5% (delta > 0). The common A-B-DRB1 haplotypes were A30-B13-DRB1 * 07(4.22%), A2-B46-DRB1 * 09(3.77%), A33-B58-DRB1 * 17(3.01%), A33-B58-DRB1 * 13.1 (1.81%) and A11-B75-DRB1 * 12(1.51%). The HLA haplotype distribution of Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai Han population has its own genetic characteristics, so it suggests this population is between southern and northern Han population. The HLA polymorphism of Chinese Han population is more abundant in East Asian populations.

ABSTRACT: The activation of random-donor platelet concentrates and platelets prepared from random-donor apheresis collections (plateletpheresis) during storage were studied. Percentage of CD62p staining and mean channel fluorescence (MCF) of CD41 of two kinds of platelets during storage on day 0, day 1, day 3 and day 5 were determined by flow cytometry. The results showed that percentages of CD62p staining and MCF of CD41 in plateletpheresis were (18.91 +/- 6.25)%, (19.48 +/- 8.27)%, (22.82 +/- 6.06)%, (56.71 +/- 11.79)% and (8.09 +/- 2.38)%, (8.13 +/- 2.45)%, (8.44 +/- 2.51)%, (19.87 +/- 6.13)%, while the results of platelet concentrates were (30.65 +/- 12.33)%, (31.46 +/- 11.86)%, (32.51 +/- 13.05)%, (63.55 +/- 13.27)% and (10.33 +/- 4.37)%, (11.09 +/- 6.61)%, (13.46 +/- 9.69)%, (24.41 +/- 10.15)%, respectively. The platelet count and pH value were also determined. The platelet number, pH value, percentage of CD62p staining and MCF of CD41 had no significant difference within 3 days of platelet storage. The platelet number and pH value decreased significantly (P < 0.001), while percentages of CD62p staining and MCF of CD41 increased significantly (P < 0.001) on day 5 of storage. It is concluded that the quality of plateletpheresis is better than platelet concentrate.

ABSTRACT: A rapid and accurate method of DNA typing for HLA was established to compensate the unsatisfactory serological typing for HLA before transplantation. DNA typing for HLA using by reverse polymerase chain reaction with sequence-spcific oligo probe (reverse PCR-SSOP) could detect HLA-A(*0101 - 8001) and B(*07021 - 8201). The results showed that HLA-AB alleles were successfully analysed in 60 matching subjects and 16 control DNAs from UCLA by reverse PCR-SSOP without false negtive and false positive results. The results were concordance with those of UCLA. The error rate of serological typing was 6.4% for HLA-A and 7.4% for HLA-B. The serological typing missed HLA-A24 and HLA-B46 for two patients with leukemia respectively. Our results suggest that DNA typing for HLA by reverse PCR-SSOP has proved to be a high-resolution, high-specificity, rapid and accurate technique, suitable for clinical application with a greater precision than serological typing.
