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

Past exposure to sun, skin phenotype, and risk of multiple sclerosis: case-control study

TL;DR: Higher sun exposure during childhood and early adolescence is associated with a reduced risk of multiple sclerosis, and insufficient ultraviolet radiation may influence the development ofmultiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study identifies new multiple sclerosis susceptibility loci on chromosomes 12 and 20

TL;DR: To identify multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility loci, a genome-wide association study in 1,618 cases and used shared data for 3,413 controls and observed a statistical interaction between SNPs in EVI5-RPL5 and HLA-DR15.
