Genotype and allele frequency of human neutrophil antigens in Acheh, Kedah, Mandailing, Minangkabu and Pattani Malays

Human neutrophil antigens (HNAs) have been reported to involve in pathogenesis of clinical conditions such as neonatal alloimmune neutropenia (NAN) and transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), thus knowledge on local distribution of HNA alleles play significant roles in disease studies. The...

The HNA population datasets collected in the present survey are similar to those from the earlier study on Malay sub-ethnic groups (Kelantan, Banjar, Jawa, Banjar and Bugis Malays), yet, significant differences were observed between Malay sub-ethnic groups and HNA datasets reported for Orang Asli Semang (Bateq, Kensiu and Lanoh) and Senoi (Che Wong and Semai).
