HLA-DR5


HLA-DR5 (DR5) is a broad-antigen serotype that is further split into HLA-DR11 and HLA-DR12 antigen serotypes.

With the exception of a few DRB1* alleles the reactivity of DR5 is relatively poor.

DR5 is associated with persistent generalized lymphadenopathy (PGL) and Kaposi sarcoma in AIDS,juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, pernicious anemia, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, mycosis fungoides, polyglandular deficiency syndrome, systemic sclerosis, childhood epilepsy, early-onset alopecia areata, short-ragweed Ra6 allergy, primary antiphospholipid syndrome, and increased longevity in the Dutch

HLA-DR5 reactive gene products are linked to serology of HLA-DRB3 (HLA-DR52).
