Sample information of multiple sclerosis:
| Detected Sample | peripheral blood |
| Sample Detail | N/A |
| Detected Method | PCR |
| Disease | MS |
| Disease subtype | N/A |
| Population | Caucasian population |
| Sample Size | 27 NMOSD cases and 29 MS cases and 28 controls |
Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 21396892 |
| Year | 2010 |
| Title | HLA-DRB association in neuromyelitis optica is different from that observed in multiple sclerosis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | HLA-DRB1*03 allele group was overrepresented in NMO patients compared with healthy controls |
| Mechanism/Pathway | these results indicate that the DRB profile of NMO patients is different from that observed for MS patients, further corroborating the distinction between NMO and MS |
