Sample information of multiple sclerosis:
| Detected Sample | peripheral lymphoid organs |
| Sample Detail | Lymph node and Spleen |
| Detected Method | ELISA |
| Disease | EAE |
| Disease subtype | N/A |

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 24463315 |
| Year | 2014 |
| Title | Developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 2 ameliorates EAE by suppressing the development of TH17 cells |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Expression | down-regulated |
| Risk type | disease risk |
| Result | DRG2 overexpression decreases the TH17 population and expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines in peripheral blood cells. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | Autoantigen-specific TH1 and TH17 lineages have been shown to mediate EAE. |
