Multiple sclerosis and polymorphisms of innate pattern recognition receptors TLR1-10, NOD1-2, DDX58, and IFIH1.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors are critical in multiple sclerosis (MS), and it is conceivable that the pattern recognition receptors of the innate immune system are of pathogenic importance. We therefore developed two novel assays capable of analyzing 42 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the human genes encoding TLR1-10, NOD1-2, DDX58, and IFIH1. Using these assays, we genotyped 963 MS patients and 960 controls, and analyzed...
