Human leukocyte antigen B27 also known as HLA-B27 is a form of protein that is present on the surface of your white blood cells. An HLA-B27 blood test is one that identifies HLA-B27 proteins.

Human leukocyte antigens or HLAs are proteins commonly found on white blood cells. It helps your immune system identify the differences between healthy body tissue and infection-causing foreign substances.

Most HLAs protect your body from harm. HLA-B27 on the other hand is a specific type of protein that contributes to immune system dysfunction. The presence of HLA-B27 protein on your white blood cells may result in attacking the healthy cells of your body by your immune system. Such a situation can result in an autoimmune disease.
