Sample information of multiple sclerosis:
| Detected Sample | total genomic DNA |
| Sample Detail | extracted from venous blood. |
| Detected Method | RFLP |
| Disease | MS |
| Disease subtype | N/A |
| Population | N/A |
| Sample Size | 94 affected individuals identified as part of a local prevalence survey , 84 affected index twins included as part of a previously reported twin study and 159 controls. |
Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 8568530 |
| Year | 1995 |
| Title | Susceptibility to multiple sclerosis and the immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Negative |
| Result | No significant allelic or haplotypic association was observed.Linkage without a population association suggests that a gene encoded on 14q confers susceptibility to multiple sclerosis. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
