| Title | Contribution of hsa-miR-146a and hsa-miR-223 gene variations in patients with multiple sclerosis reveals association of rs2910164 and rs1044165 with risk of multiple sclerosis susceptibility |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | N/A |
| Main Result | this study determined that the C and T alleles of rs2910164 and rs1044165 are risk factors for MS in the Iranian population |
| Result | Allelic and genotypic associations between the SNPs and MS were evaluated by the data analysis conducted by SPSS V.20. The frequencies of rs2910164 and rs1044165 SNPs were significantly different between the patients with MS and healthy controls. C and T alleles in the variants rs2910164 and rs1044165, respectively, are associated with increased risk of MS. Such association was obtained in codominant, dominant, and overdominant models for both variants (OR ~3 and OR ~1.5, respectively). |
| Mechanism/Pathway | microRNAs (miRNAs), are involved in increased or decreased expression of molecules at the onset of MS or through its progression and exacerbation |
