Title Impact of the Asp299Gly polymorphism in the toll-like receptor 4 (tlr-4) gene on disease course of multiple sclerosis

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type Phenotype risk
Main Result Negative
Result However, these functional changes seem not to have any impact on the clinical presentation of MS patients with different TLR-4 genotypes.
Mechanism/Pathway It is possible that the reduced activity towards activation via the TLR-4 pathway takes place on both activating and suppressing cell types which then leads to a new equilibrium with the net result of a normal overall function.
