文摘目的探讨人类白细胞抗原(human leukocyte antigen,HLA)基因多态性与乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)感染的相关性。方法收集云南省昆明市延安医院健康体检者静脉血样本501例,采用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测HBV二对半,根据HBV二对半检测结果分为HBV携带组和既往感染组以及健康对照组3组,用序列特异性引物聚合酶链反应(polymerase chain reaction with sequence specific primers,PCR-SSP)基因分型技术检测HLA-A抗原的基因型,将HBV携带组和健康对照组以及HBV既往感染组和健康对照组的HLA-A基因多态性的分布频率进行比较。采用SPSS17.0软件进行数据统计分析。结果健康对照组HLA-A2阳性数占比47.49%,等位基因频率数占比31.29%;健康对照组基因分布频率总体与中华骨髓库发布的中国常见及确认的HLA-A等位基因表一致。HBV携带组HLA-A2阳性数占比63.04%,等位基因频率数占比42.23%,携带者的HLA-A2阳性率和等位基因频率差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);HBV既往感染组HLA-A2阳性数占比56.14%,等位基因频率数占比35.97%,既往感染组的HLA-A2阳性率和等位基因频率差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论HLA-A2基因可能是慢性乙型肝炎HBV携带者的易感基因。
