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

Variation in interleukin 7 receptor alpha chain (IL7R) influences risk of multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: In this article, the interleukin 7 receptor alpha chain (IL7Ralpha) was found to contribute to the non-HLA genetic risk in multiple sclerosis, demonstrating a role for this pathway in the pathophysiology of this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex and gender issues in multiple sclerosis
