Evaluation of Human Leukocyte Antigen Class I and Class II in End-Stage Renal Disease Occurrence in Indonesian Transplantation Patients.

Background: Genetic studies of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), including those of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, have been reported in several populations but have not yet been evaluated in Indonesia. Some studies have reported that these genes had a substantial role in ESRD. This study aims to analyze the association between HLA genes and ESRD within the Indonesian community.
