| Title | HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 associations with multiple sclerosis in Sardinia and French Canada: evidence for immunogenetically distinct patient groups |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Negative |
| Result | In French Canadians, MS was positively associated with DQAl"0102 and DQB1*0602, but there was no positive association of either allele with Sardinian MS, which, by contrast, was positively associated with DQB1*0302 and *0201 and with DQA1*0301, whereas none of these alleles was MS-associated in French Canadians. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
