Abstract excerpt
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory disease where oxidative stress and DNA damage may influence disease progression. We investigated whether defects in base excision repair (BER) pathways contribute to MS by combining functional DNA repair assays, gene expression profiling, and genotype analysis. We collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 70 MS patients and 61 healthy controls. These cells...
