Abstract

HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) gen is located on chromosome 6’s short arm including several loci. HLA genotyping is necessary for transplantation, especially in hematopoitic stem cell transplantation. A cross-sectional study to determine the frequency of HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-BDR1 alleles of 233 cord blood units stock in Stem Cell Bank, National Children’s Hospital from year 2011-2014. Cord blood units were HLA genotyped by PCR-SSP method using AllSetTM Gold SSP Kit. The results showed that HLA-A locus has 17 alleles in which highest frequency alleles are A*11 (25.3%); A*02 (25.0%); A*33 (16.1%); A*24 (14.6%); A*29 (7.3%); A*26 (4.2%) and lowest frequency alleles are A*13; A*25; A*68; A*69; A*74 with 0.3%. HLA-B locus has 22 allleles in which highest frequency alleles are B*15 (28,4%); B*46 (9,8%); B*38 (8.0%); B*07 (7.6%); B*58 (6.9%); B*40 (6.2%) and lowest frequency alleles are B*18 (0.5%); B*37 (0.5%); B*08 (0.2%); B*14 (0.2%); B*67 (0.2%). HLA-DRB1 locus has 13 alleles in which highest frequency alleles are DRB1*12 (30.1%); DRB1*14 (11.4%); DRB1*09 (8.8%); DRB1*15 (8.5%); DRB1*04 (6.9%) and lowest frequency alleles are DRB1*16 (2.8%); DRB1*01 (0.5%). HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 loci has several haplotypes in which highest frequency haplotyes are A*11/B*15/DRB1*12 (17.5%); A*02/B*15/DRB1*12 (16.9%) and A*33/B*15/DRB1*12 (9.3%).
