HLA-DR52

Alleles

Associated diseases

DR52 serotype is positively associated with systemic sclerosis, inflammatory myopathies, inclusion body myositis,

DRB3*01 is positively associated with sarcoidosis, Grave's Disease, pulmonary sarcoidosis,

DRB301:01:DRB103:01 is linked to Lofgren's syndrome

DRB3*02:02 is also linked to Grave's disease, serum IgG antibodies to Chlamydia pneumoniae with essential hypertension, acute necrotizing encephalopathy

DRB3*03:01 is weakly associated with anticardiolipin antibodies in SLE

DRB303:01:DRB113:02 may be associated with Crohn's disease

DRB1 linkage

HLA-DRB3 is linked to these HLA-DR serotypes and DRB1 allele groups:

HLA-DR3 - DRB1*03

HLA-DR5 -

• HLA-DR11 - DRB1*11
• HLA-DR12 - DRB1*12

HLA-DR6 -

• HLA-DR13 - DRB1*13
• HLA-DR14 - DRB1*14

Rarely HLA-DR8 - DRB1*08

HLA-DR52 - Sjögren syndrome
