Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID	11086101
Year	2000
Title	Transcriptional analysis of multiple sclerosis brain lesions reveals a complex pattern of cytokine expression

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression	up-regulation
Risk type	Disease risk
Result	CD4 and HLA-DRalpha transcripts were dramatically increased in MS as compared with controls
Mechanism/Pathway	This reveals a robust MHC class II up-regulation and suggests that Ag is being presented locally to activated T cells
