Investigating the Correlation Between HLA-II Gene Polymorphism and RhE Alloimmunization in Pregnant Chinese Women

This study demonstrated that HLA-II haplotypes are associated with allo-anti-E antibodies in pregnant women from Sichuan Province, China. The HLA-DRB1*09:01-DQA1*03:02-DQB1*03:03 phenotype may enhance the formation of anti-E alloantibodies, and the HLA-DRB1*09:01 molecule may play a key role in alloimmunity.
