Frequencies of the HLA-C*07:29, C*08:01G, B*15:27, B*40:06, DRB1*04:06, and DPB1*36:01 alleles were higher, while the frequencies of the DRB1*12:02 and DPB1*04:01 alleles were lower in COVID-19 patients than in the control population, with uncorrected statistical significance. The allele distributions of HLA-A, -C, -B, -DRB1, -DQB1, and -DPB1 loci were compared between COVID-19 patients and control individuals. HLA-C*07:29, C*08:01G (including C*08:01 and C*08:22), B*15:27, B*40:06, DRB1*04:06, and DPB1*36:01 frequencies were higher in COVID-19 patients than in the control population, with uncorrected statistical significance (P < .05). 8 In the present study, HLA-C*07:29 was found in one COVID-19 patient, but in no individuals in the control group. 15, 16 In the present study, these SARS-susceptibility alleles were not found to occur at a significantly different frequency in COVID-19 patients after P-value correction. ./cache/cord-344364-vu389d88.txt ./txt/cord-344364-vu389d88.txt
