Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type Disease risk
Main Result Typing the 41 SNPs with functioning DCE assay (Fischer and Lerman, 1983) in the pooled Norwegian controls (n= 4000) demonstrated that 16 of these (39%) were heterozygous in the Norwegian population , four of these displaying a minor allele frequency of less than 1%
Result Heterozygosity (HZ) in 4000 controls
Mechanism/Pathway Genes that control T cell activation downstream of the initial presentation of peptide antigen by HLA molecules may be regarded as prime candidate susceptibility genes in T cell mediated autoimmune diseases, such as MS
