Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 20192980 |
| Year | 2010 |
| Title | The interleukin-1 cluster gene region is associated with multiple sclerosis in an Italian Caucasian population |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Our findings support the existence of a causative variant for MS within this candidate region in a representative Italian Caucasian population and, in particular, the role of the IL-1 beta ()513 C/T) variant warrants further investigation. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | causative variant |
