HLA-G Ins/Del polymorphism and +3142C/G SNP are not related to neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) development, disability status or anti-aquaporin 4 presence in Brazilian patients.

Abstract excerpt

We analyzed the association of polymorphisms from the 3' untranslated region of the HLA-G gene in 70 neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) patients and 162 healthy controls. No associations were found between the polymorphisms in NMOSD when compared to healthy controls, serology of the anti-AQP4 NMOSD biomarker and Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS). In conclusion, the 3' untranslated region 14 bp...
