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 pathology-associated genes showed a significant association with either proportion of active lesions (rs3130253/MOG), incidence of cortical gray matter lesions (rs1064395/NCAN) or the proportion of remyelinated lesions (rs5742909/CTLA4) |
| Mechanism/Pathway | This is in part because of the difficulty in the functional translation of genotype into disease-relevant mechanisms |
