Fanconi anemia includes a number of clinically and genetically diverse disorders all of them being associated with genomic instability. Some previous studies reported higher frequencies of certain HLA alleles in patients with Fanconi anemia. In the current study, we genotyped HLA-A/B/DRB1 alleles in 40 Iranian patients with Fanconi anemia. We also genotyped these alleles in the same number of Iranian sex-matched healthy individuals. The frequency of DRB1*11 was significantly higher in patients compared with controls (OR (95% CI) = 2.143 [1.05, 4.46], P value = 0.036). On the other hand, the frequencies of DRB1*13 and B*13 were lower in patients compared with controls (OR (95% CI) = 0.134 [0.02, 0.55], P value = 0.003 and OR (95% CI) = 0.13 [0.01, 0.89], P value = 0.035, respectively). Assessment of genetic divergence using Fstat test showed complete divergence in HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 alleles and haplotypes between patients and controls. The current study provides evidences for different distribution of HLA alleles between patients with Fanconi anemia and healthy subjects.
