Pubmed ID	10371522
Year	1999

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type	N/A
Main Result	negative
Result	The allele frequencies of the FcgammaRIIA and FcgammaRIIIB did not differ significantly between the MS patients and the controls.
Mechanism/Pathway	FcgammaRIIIB NA1/NA1 and FcgammaRIIA H/H bind more efficient IgG1/IgG3 and IgG2 subclasses, respectively, than FcgammaRIIIB NA2/NA2 and FcgammaRIIA R/R. A more effective processing of circulating immune complexes may be one mechanism for better clinical outcome in MS.
