In a previous study on the effects of TAP1 and TAP2 gene polymorphism in kidney allograft recipients, we found no association between graft outcome and recipient/donor TAP1 and TAP2 allele polymorphism or compatibility, but we observed a surprising increased frequency of the TAP1*0201 allele among kidney recipients. This increase was restricted to patients with glomerulopathy. We now report on a larger cohort of 178 patients with membranous nephropathy who were typed for their HLA-DPB1, -DRB1, -DMA, -DMB, LMP2, LMP, TAP1 and TAP2 genes compared with 100 random ethnically matched and healthy unrelated individuals used as controls. The results show a significant increased frequency of two markers in membranous nephropathy patients as compared with controls: firstly the previously recognized increase in HLA-DR3 (59% vs 18%: Pc < 1 x 10(-9), RR = 6.6), secondly a new association with two TAP1 amino acid variants displaying respectively a valine in amino acid position 333 (TAP1-Val-333) and consequently a glycine in position 637 (TAP1Gly-637) due to its strong linkage disequilibrium with Val-333. No linkage disequilibrium was found between TAP1-Val-333 and HLA-DR3. Moreover, we also noticed a decrease of the DMA*0102 phenotype in membranous nephropathy patients. The other HLA-DPB, -DMB, LMP2, LMP7 and TAP2 phenotype frequencies were roughly similar between patients and controls. These results show that the TAP1-Val-333 like HLA-DR3 phenotype is positively associated with membranous nephropathy and that these two risk factors are not cumulative in membranous nephropathy pathophysiology.
