Sample information of multiple sclerosis:
| Detected Sample | peripheral blood |
| Sample Detail | N/A |
| Detected Method | PCR |
| Disease | MS |
| Disease subtype | N/A |

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 17845076 |
| Year | 2007 |
| Title | The Inheritance of Resistance Alleles in Multiple Sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | We confirm that HLA-DRB1*15- and HLA-DRB1*17-bearing haplotypes increase risk of MS |
| Mechanism/Pathway | and is in keeping with an additive mode of inheritance for HLA-DRB1*15, similar to other studies |
