Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type	Disease risk
Main Result	Negative
Result	When global and one-by-one comparisons between both groups were made, no significant differences were observed.No differences were apparent when allelic or phenotypic (carrier) frequencies were compared instead.
Mechanism/Pathway	Osteopontin (OPN) is a Th1 cytokine with multiple functions in inflammation and immunity, and in bone metabolism.
