Association of macrophage migration inhibitory factor gene promoter polymorphisms with multiple sclerosis in Turkish patients.

The Journal of international medical research - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

Elevated levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) have been observed in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis. This study was designed to determine if MIF gene polymorphisms are associated with multiple sclerosis and disease severity. In total, 120 relapsing-remitting patients with multiple sclerosis and 120 control subjects were enrolled in the study. There was a statistically...
