FokI vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism in association with multiple sclerosis risk and disability progression in Slovaks.

Neurological research - 1 Apr 2015

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: It is still unclear as to why multiple sclerosis (MS) is so devastating and rapidly progressive in one patient and less so in another. Recent data implicate vitamin D in modulation of the risk as well as the clinical course of disease. Since vitamin D acts through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the VDR gene might account for variations in the MS...
