Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Ten genes previously showing different evidence of association with multiple sclerosis have been selected to validate. METHODS: Eleven polymorphisms were genotyped with the iPLEX™ Sequenom in a well-powered collection of Spanish origin including 2863 multiple sclerosis cases and 2930 controls. RESULTS: Replication extended to the following polymorphisms: PKN2 (rs305217), GTF2B...
