DTY Yu, SY Choo, T Schaack - Annals of Internal Medicine, 1989 - Am Coll Physicians A unique feature of patients with ankylosing spondylitis and reactive arthritis is that almost all
share the HLA type B27. The primary structures of the HLA-B27 antigens have been
determined. At least six variants exist. However, disease predisposition does not appear ... Cited by 40 - Related articles - All 2 versions
CL Nickerson, HS Luthra, S Savarirayan, CS David - Human immunology, 1990 - Elsevier The majority of patients with reactive arthritis have the major histocompatibility complex class
I gene HLA-B27. The development of arthritis in these patients often occurs following infection
with one of several enteric bacteria, including Yersinia enterocolitica. In this study, ... Cited by 24 - Related articles - All 3 versions
