Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 21664965
Year 2011
Title Polymorphisms in genes encoding leptin, ghrelin and their receptors in German multiple sclerosis patients

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type Disease risk
Main Result Negative
Result Allele and genotype frequencies did not differ significantly between MS patients and controls.
Mechanism/Pathway Through binding to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), ghrelin is involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis and has also been shown to inhibit inflammatory processes.
