Genetic risk and a primary role for cell-mediated immune mechanisms in multiple sclerosis

Stephen Sawcer, +265 more
- 10 Aug 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a collaborative GWAS involving 9,772 cases of European descent collected by 23 research groups working in 15 different countries, they have replicated almost all of the previously suggested associations and identified at least a further 29 novel susceptibility loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of immune-related loci identifies 48 new susceptibility variants for multiple sclerosis

Ashley Beecham, +206 more
- 01 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: This study enhances the catalog of multiple sclerosis risk variants and illustrates the value of fine mapping in the resolution of GWAS signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Class II HLA interactions modulate genetic risk for multiple sclerosis

Loukas Moutsianas, +54 more
- 07 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: A high-resolution map of HLA genetic risk is built and evidence for interactions involving classical HLA alleles and non-HLA risk-associated variants is found, estimating a minimal effect of polygenic epistasis in modulating major risk alleles.
