Mapping MHC-encoded susceptibility and resistance in primary sclerosing cholangitis: the role of MICA polymorphism.
BACKGROUND and AIMS: Recent studies suggest that major histocompatibility complex-encoded susceptibility to primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) maps to the HLA B-TNFA region on chromosome 6p21.3. METHODS: The present study uses a standard polymerase chain reaction protocol to investigate the 16 com...
