Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 15465608 |
| Year | 2004 |
| Title | The role of the polio virus receptor and the herpesvirus entry mediator B genes for the development of MS |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Expression | No significance |
| Risk type | Disease risk |
| Result | The studies did not disclose any expression difference between MS patients and controls for the protein on peripheral blood monocytes. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | HVEB mediates entry of neurotropic viruses to the brain.In the CNS, both receptors are structural CNS proteins and important for cellular interactions. |
