Journal ArticleDOI

Immunopathology of multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: The current understanding of multiple sclerosis immunopathology is discussed, long-standing hypotheses regarding the role of the immune system in the disease are evaluated, and key questions that are still unanswered are delineated.
Journal ArticleDOI

HLA variation and disease

TL;DR: The scope for personalized antigen-specific disease prevention is evaluated, whereby harnessing HLA–ligand interactions for clinical benefit is becoming a realistic prospect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors influencing success of clinical genome sequencing across a broad spectrum of disorders

Jenny C. Taylor, +122 more

TL;DR: It is found that jointly calling variants across samples, filtering against both local and external databases, deploying multiple annotation tools and using familial transmission above biological plausibility contributed to accuracy.
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.
