Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 2425452 |
| Year | 1986 |
| Title | Association between HLA-D region epitopes and multiple sclerosis in Arabs |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Those patients from the Mediterranean area showed an association ctf MS with HLA-DR2 (p <0.001) and -DQwl (p <0.05), whilst in those from the Gulf there was an association with -DRw53 (p <0.02). |
| Mechanism/Pathway | We have studied the HLA associations of MS patients in Arab patients from two re-gions. |
