Abstract
A method of sequence-based typing (SBT) has been adopted to assort types of exons 2 and 3, which have the most polymorphism, of HLA-B locus of the Tujia nation group in Hubei province. The correlation among the HLA-B alleles, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer risk has also been investigated. Under the condition of resident location and age, race unified, 100 specimens of cancer patients were sampled as a case group, of which 86 were HPV positive and were screened for HLA-B alleles; while 187 specimens were taken from healthy people, of which 92 were HPV negative as a control group. The result shows that by comparing the above mentioned 86 HPV positive cervical cancer group and 92 HPV negative normal group, it was concluded that HLA-B*6701 was only found in the cervical cancer group (p < 0.034), which shows that HLA-B*6701 can be used as an important candidate biological marking gene for generation of cervical cancer in Wufeng county of Hubei province.
