Pubmed ID 29587799
Year 2018
Title HLA alleles modulate EBV viral load in multiple sclerosis

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type Disease risk
Main Result Negative
Result The relationship between HLA alleles and viral parameters was exclusively seen in MS patient.MS patients carrying the HLA-DRB1*15 allele (HLA-DRB1*15+) (N = 42/117) had higher EBV viral load than those not carrying this allele (HLA-DRB1*15) .The highest EBV viral load was detected in HLA-B*07+/HLA-DRB1*15+/HLA-A*02 (least favorable HLA combination) patients;the 25 HLA-B*07/HLA-DRB1*15/HLA-A*A02+ patients were characterized by the lowest EBV viral load.
Mechanism/Pathway HLA-class I molecules present antigens to T lymphocytes and initiate immune response against viruses.
