Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 29924453 |
| Year | 2018 |
| Title | HLA-G gene polymorphism and soluble HLA-G serum level in patients with multiple sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | In this research, we found significantly different distribution of HLA-G polymorphism between MS patients and healthy individuals. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic inflammatory demyelinating disorder of central nervous system in young population. It has been suggested that major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6p21 is the strongest genome-wide MS susceptibility factor. HLA-G is a non-classical HLA class I with limited polymorphisms. |
