HLA-DR4 (DR4) is a HLA-DR serotype that recognizes the DRB1*04 gene products. The DR4 serogroup is large and has a number of moderate frequency alleles spread over large regions of the world.

Serology

The serological identification of DR4 is good. The serology of DRB1*0417 to *0460 is unknown.

Disease associations

By serotype

DR4 is associated extraarticular[1]rheumatoid arthritis[1], hydralazine-induced female systemic lupus erythematosus[1],pemphigoid gestationis[1], phemphigus foliaceus[1], obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy[1], IgA nephropathy[1] and 'shared syndrome'-systemic schlerosis/rheumatoid arthritis.[1]

By allele

DRB1*04 is associated with increased risk for alopecia areata.[1]


DRB1*0401 is associated with multiple sclerosis[1], rheumatoid arthritis[1], type 1 diabetes[1][1], lyme disease induced arthritis[1]

DRB1*0402: drug-triggered[1]/idiopathic pemphigus vulgaris[1][1], type 1 diabetes[1], SLE associated anti-cardiolipin and anti-β2 glycoprotein I[1]

DRB1*0403: polycystic ovary syndrome[1], SLE associated anti-cardiolipin and anti-β2 glycoprotein I[1]

DRB1*0404: anti-citrullinated fibrinogen[1] in rheumatoid arthritis[1], autoimmune hepatitis[1]

DRB1*0405: rheumatoid arthritis[1], Autoimmune hepatitis[1], type 1 diabetes[1][1]

DRB1*0406: caspase-8 autoantibodies silicosis-systemic sclerosis (SSc)-systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)[1]

DRB1*0409: T. cruzi infection with cardiomyopathy[1]

By haplotype

DR4-DQ8 is a risk factor for papillary thyroid carcinoma.[1]

DRB1*04:DQA1*0303-DQB1*0401 haplotype: type III autoimmune polyglandular syndrome[1], autoimmune hepatitis [1], autoimmune pancreatitis[1]

DRB1*04:DQA1*03-DQB1*0302 haplotype: Type 1 diabetes[1][1] with DRB1*0401, *0405, *0402 increasing risk when DQ8 is present.[1]

By genotype

DRB1*0101/*0404 and *0101/*0401 increases risk of mortality in rheumatoid arthritis, with eschemic heart disease and smoking.[1] these same genotypes are associated with rheumatoid vasculitis.[1]

By haplotype

HLA DR4-DQ8 juvenile diabetes, coeliac disease, rheumatoid arthritis[1]
