We studied HLA tissue status in 16 fully diagnosed gluten enteropathy patients. Fifty five healthy kidney donors were enlisted as controls. HLA BS, B12, DQ2 and DQ3 were significant (p<0.05) but, DR3 was far more significant (p< 0.005). This relative risk for DR3 / DR7 was 11, DR3 / DR3 was 6.6 and DR5 / DR7 was 0.89.
