Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 28427698
Year 2017
Title Novel functional polymorphism in IGF-1 gene associated with multiple sclerosis: A new insight to MS

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression up-regulation
Risk type Disease risk
Result According to IGF-1 roles in CNS and our results, this study suggests that low IGF-1 level may be associated with susceptibility to MS
Mechanism/Pathway identified a T to C single nucleotide substitution at position 1089 and a C to T at position 383 from transcription start site in the IGF-1 gene promoter.
