class="title"> Abstract </h2> <div class="abstract-content selected" id="eng-abstract"> <p> Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BCR), a chronic ocular inflammatory disease with characteristic choroidal lymphocytic infiltrates, has been strongly associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A29. Although HLA-A29 occurs frequently in all populations, BCR affects only a small percentage of HLA-A29-positive Caucasians, indicating additional susceptibility factors for BCR. Discovery of HLA class I-specific killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) led to a series of epidemiological studies implicating KIR-HLA gene combinations in disease. Here, we characterized KIR-HLA pairs in BCR patients and controls carrying HLA-A*29 as well as controls lacking HLA-A*29. KIR-HLA pairs implicated for weak inhibition (KIR2DL2/3+HLA-C1 and KIR3DL1+HLA-Bw4(T80)) in combination with activating KIR genes associated with autoimmunity (KIR2DS2, 2DS3 and 2DS4) augment the risk of developing BCR in HLA-A*29-positive individuals. The reciprocal association of strong inhibitory pairs (KIR3DL1+HLA-Bw4(I80) and KIR2DL1+HLA-C2) in combination with those implicated in protection from infection (KIR3DS1+HLA-Bw4(I80) and KIR2DS1+HLA-C2) was observed in HLA-A*29-negative controls. These results suggest that a profound effect of KIR2DS2/S3/S4 in the absence of strong inhibition may enhance the activation of natural killer cells and T-cell subsets against intraocular self-antigens, thereby contributing to pathogenesis of BCR. </p> </div> </div> <p class="disclaimer" id="disclaimer"> <a href="/disclaimer/" target="_blank" ga_category="literature_resources" ga_action="disclaimer_link" ga_label="under_abstract">PubMed Disclaimer</a> </p> <div class="similar-articles" id="similar"> <h2 class="title"> Similar articles </h2> <ul class="articles-list" id="similar-articles-list"> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/36599262/" ref="article_id=36599262&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=1" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="36599262" data-ga-label=""> The impact of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I ligands on predisposition or protection against prostate cancer. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Roshan Zamir M, Ariafar A, Ghaderi A, Amirzargar A.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Roshan Zamir M, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">Immunobiology. 2023 Mar;228(2):152319. doi: 10.1016/j.imbio.2022.152319.
