Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 19758194 |
| Year | 2009 |
| Title | Association study on two vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms and vitamin D metabolites in multiple sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Negative |
| Result | We did not find an association of either of the two SNPs with either 25(OH)D or 1,25(OH)2D levels.We did not find an association of these polymorphisms with MS. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
