Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 17622942 |
| Year | 2007 |
| Title | Pharmacogenetics of glatiramer acetate therapy for multiple sclerosis reveals drug-response markers |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Phenotype risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Additionally, we recorded nominally significant associations of response with five other genes, MBP, CD86, FAS, IL1R1 and IL12RB2, which are likely to be involved in glatiramer acetate’s modeof-action, both directly and indirectly. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
