The pathogenesis of classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) involves environmental and genetic
factors. To explore the role of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, we performed a …

HLA-A2 protects from EBV+ classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) in Western Europe, but it is
unknown whether this protective effect also exists in the Chinese population. We …

HLA genotyping and genome wide association studies provide strong evidence for
associations between Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) alleles and classical Hodgkin …

Previous studies showed that the HLA class I region is associated with Epstein-Barr virus
(EBV)–positive Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and that HLA-A is the most likely candidate gene in …

Based on the presence of an abundant inflammatory infiltrate, expression of a broad
spectrum of cytokines and the professional antigen presenting phenotype of Hodgkin Reed …

Various studies have indicated that the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region is associated
with Hodgkin's lymphoma. We recently showed a specific association of the HLA class I …

A proportion of classical Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is believed to be causally related to
infection with the ubiquitous lymphotropic EBV. The determining factors for development of …

Both targeted and genome-wide studies have revealed genetic associations for
susceptibility, prognosis, and treatment-induced secondary malignancies and toxicities in …

Background In Caucasian populations, the tumor cells of Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-positive
classical Hodgkin Lymphomas (cHL) patients more frequently express HLA class I and HLA …

Since an association between the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region and Hodgkin
