Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 17967467 |
| Year | 2007 |
| Title | Gender-specific influence of the chromosome 16 chemokine gene cluster on the susceptibility to Multiple Sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | A trend towards a decreased allelic frequency of the A allele of the CCL22 C/A SNP as well as of the T allele of the CCL17 C/T SNP was found in patients compared with controls |
| Mechanism/Pathway | the presence of theAThaplotype in chromosome 16 chemokine cluster is likely toconfer a decreased risk of developing MS |
