The DR and DQ HLA genotypes of 94 Tunisian children affected with celiac disease are analyzed so that we can gain a better understanding of the HLA component of this disease. All of them carry at least one of two specific heterodimers: a DQ heterodimer, encoded by DQA1*0501, DQB1*0201 and/or a DR heterodimer, encoded by the nonpolymorphic gene DRA and the DRB4 gene. Quantifying the relative penetrances of all susceptible genotypes gives evidence for a synergistic effect of these two heterodimers and for a dose effect of the alleles encoding the beta chains of these two heterodimers. The DR3DR7 individuals have the greatest risk. They present the two kinds of heterodimers and carry two DQB1*0201 alleles. Celiac disease is the first HLA-associated disease for which the at-risk genotypes are so well delineated.
