| Pubmed ID | 29736281 |
| Year | 2018 |
| Title | Association of Optic Neuritis with CYP4F2 Gene Single Nucleotide Polymorphism and IL-17A Concentration |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Expression | up-regulation |
| Risk type | Disease risk |
| Result | The higher IL-17A levels were found to be associated with ON, while allele A at rs1558139 was associated only with ON with MS in male patients |
| Mechanism/Pathway | In the central nervous system, IL-17A is associated with a wide range of neuropathological disorders (MS, epilepsy episodes of ischemic brain disorders). IL-17A, acting on spinal nerve roots and the spinal cord, contributes to neuropathic and inflammatory pain promotion through pain receptors.Also, IL-17A is very important to damaged sympathetic axons which innervate the cornea regeneration and growth. |
