Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system with putative autoimmune aetiology and complex genetic background. Here, we report the results of a genome screen for linkage disequilibrium (LD) by using 6000 microsatellite markers in 198 HLA-DRB1*15-positive MS p...
