Abstract
The distributions of the alleles and genotypes of Polymorphic markers D6S2414 and D6S1271 located among class II MHC genes have been studied in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN) and healthy donors. Both markers have been found to be associated with the disease. Since these microsatellites are located in the chromosomal region occupied by class II MHC genes, their association with CGN indirectly indicates that class II MHC genes are involved in the development of this pathology.
