I am interested to learn of any genetic (familial) associations that
exist with delayed hypersensitivities. For example, is the prevalence
of say, contact hypersensitivity or the reaction to intradermal
tuberculin (Mantoux) test, dependant on the MHC of the individuals
concerned in addition to the allergen? Some references would be much
appreciated. Thanks, Robin.
