LOINC description : A bioassay to obtain the specific allelic genotypes of several of the human leukocyte
antigens, whose genes reside on chromosome 6p within the Major Histocompatibility
Region (MHC). The measure determines the alleles/single nucleotide polymorphisms that
are present in the human leukocyte antigen regions of chromosome 6 to assess the major
histocompatability system. The genetic variation within the human leukocyte antigen
region determines the person's immune response and has been tied to specific autoimmune
disorders such as Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, as well as other diseases
such as multiple sclerosis, ankylosing spondylitis, and type 1 diabetes. This assay
is similar to the genotyping performed in genome wide association studies but captures
much more of the genetic variation within the human leukocyte antigen region than
would be covered with tag single nucleotide polymorphisms.;
