Useful For
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful

Determining class II human leukocyte antigens (HLA) to identify potential disease associations or markers for drug hypersensitivity

Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II genes (HLA-DRB1, -DRB3/4/5, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1, -DPB1) are a part of the major histocompatibility gene complex that encodes for proteins involved in immune recognition.

 

This assay is designed to provide low-to-medium resolution for HLA class II typing. Low-to-medium resolution defines the typing at first field (antigen or allele group level). This contrasts with high-resolution typing, which defines typing at second field or higher (allele level).

Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Not applicable

Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results

Interpretation depends on the rationale for ordering the test.

Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances

No significant cautionary statements.

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference

Next-generation sequencing is used to type for Class II alleles (DRB1, DRB3/4/5, DQB1, DQA1, DPB1, and DPA1) from genomic DNA. This method uses strictly controlled polymerase chain reaction (PCR) conditions for DNA amplification. The PCR amplicons are processed and sequenced via the Illumina MiSeq instrument. The output files are analyzed in provided software, which compares the data against the IMGT/HLA database to assign the molecular typing.(Package inserts: Holotype HLA Kit. Omixon; v3.0.1, 08/16/2019; NGSgo HLA Kit. GenDx; v2, 02/2021)

 

For resolution of an allelic ambiguity or in select cases, the following additional methodologies may be utilized:

-Sequence-based typing (SBT) by Sanger sequencing(Package insert: SeCore Sequencing and GSSP Kits. One Lambda, Inc; Rev 3, 02/06/2021)

-SBT by sequence-specific primers (SSP)(Package insert: Olerup SSP HLA typing kits including Taq Polymerase. CareDx; Rev 04, 12/2020)

-Reverse sequence-specific oligonucleotides (SSO)(Package insert: LABType SSO Typing Test. One Lambda, Inc.; Rev 04, 11/11/2019)

Day(s) Performed
Outlines the days the test is performed. This field reflects the day that the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means that assays are performed multiple times during the day.

Monday, Thursday

Report Available
The interval of time (receipt of sample at Mayo Clinic Laboratories to results available) taking into account standard setup days and weekends. The first day is the time that it typically takes for a result to be available. The last day is the time it might take, accounting for any necessary repeated testing.

7 to 17 days

Specimen Retention Time
Outlines the length of time after testing that a specimen is kept in the laboratory before it is discarded

14 days

Performing Laboratory Location
Indicates the location of the laboratory that performs the test
