Sample information of multiple sclerosis:

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 20636826 |
| Year | 2010 |
| Title | Association of the HLA-G gene polymorphism with multiple sclerosis in a Polish population |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Negative |
| Result | For the second promoter SNP, we observed a non-significant but clearly higher percentage of -716TGheterozygotes in the controls than in all patients andin those with the relapsing–remitting form of the dis-ease |
| Mechanism/Pathway | It is possible that the association of HLA-G with MS observed in our study is due to a strong linkage disequilibrium |
