Abstract: | Investigation of 98 members (healthy and affected) belonging to 17 hay-fever families, for clinical picture, total and specific IgE and HLA A, B, C and DR is presented. There was no significant correlation between hay-fever, total or specific IgE and a certain HLA antigen or haplotype. There was, however, an association between hay-fever and same haplotype within 4 of the 17 families. |
