Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 31228212 |
| Year | 2020 |
| Title | Post-mortem multiple sclerosis lesion pathology is influenced by single nucleotide polymorphisms |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Three SNPs linked to MS clinical severity showed a significant association between the genotype and either the proportion of active lesions (rs2234978/FAS and rs11957313/KCNIP1) or the proportion of mixed active/inactive lesions (rs8056098/CLEC16A) |
| Mechanism/Pathway | This is in part because of the difficulty in the functional translation of genotype into disease-relevant mechanisms |
