Ulcerative colitis, Takayasu arteritis and HLA.

This data is also thought to support "species difference" of Takayasu arteritis, because this disease is frequently encountered in Asian people and it is rare in Caucasian people; this haplotype is typical in Asian people. On the other hand, ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease involving the colonic mucosa, which is, from its immunological findings, accepted as a type of autoimmune disorder (4). These morbid conditions have been reported to be complicated with various kinds of autoimmune diseases such as lupus erythematosus, chronic active hepatitis, autoimmune
