Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 17463066 |
| Year | 2007 |
| Title | Multiple sclerosis immunopathic trait and HLA-DR(2)15 as independent risk factors in multiple sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Phenotype risk |
| Main Result | Negative |
| Result | These results suggest that the MS susceptibility gene, HLA-DR(2)15 type, does not induce MSIT, and conceivably these are two separate risk factors in the development of MS. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | Hence, the HLA locus may be involved in the initialpathogenic events, while other candidate QTL, such as those postulated for MSIT, influence the development and progression of the disease. |
