HLA(haplotypes) In terms of genetics one finds that<unk>  has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, with an incomplete penetrance. Furthermore, the human leukocyte antigen involved in this condition are HLA-DQ2(DR3 (DQB*0201)) and HLA-DQ8(DR4 (DQB1*0302)), genetically speaking, which indicates this is a multifactorial disorder, as well. Should any affected organs show chronic inflammatory infiltrate (lymphocytes), this would be an indication. Moreover, autoantibodies reacting to specific antigens is common, in the immune system of an affected individual.
