Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 16872485 |
| Year | 2006 |
| Title | Three allele combinations associated with Multiple Sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | We identified two previously unknown MS-associated tri-allelic combinations: -509TGFβ1*C, DRB1*18(3), CTLA4*G and -238TNF*B1,-308TNF*A2, CTLA4*G, which perfectly separate MS cases from controls, at least in the present sample. The previously described DRB1*15(2) allele, the microsatellite TNFa9 allele and the biallelic combination CCR5Δ32, DRB1*08 were also reidentified as MS-associated |
| Mechanism/Pathway | tri-allelic combinations |
