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.

A transcription factor map as revealed by a genome-wide gene expression analysis of whole-blood mRNA transcriptome in multiple sclerosis | NOVA. The University of Newcastle's Digital Repository

TL;DR: A network of transcription factors that potentially dysregulate several genes in MS or one or more of its disease subtypes is uncovered, including those involved in early T-lymphocyte specification and commitment as well as in oligodendrocyte dedifferentiation and development.

Therapeutic approaches to disease modifying therapy for multiple sclerosis in adults: An Australian and New Zealand perspective Part 2 New and emerging therapies and their efficacy | NOVA. The University of Newcastle's Digital Repository

TL;DR: The effectiveness of β-interferon in the treatment of different stages and the different disease courses of MS is critically reviewed with the conclusion that the absolute level of response in term of annualised relapse rates and MRI activity are similar, but are disappointing in terms of sustained disability progression for progressive forms of the disease as mentioned in this paper.
