No evidence for interleukin-4 gene conferring susceptibility to myasthenia gravis.

Journal of neuroimmunology - 1 Dec 1998

Huang D, Xia S, Zhou Y, Pirskanen R, Liu L, Lefvert A K

Abstract excerpt

A variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) and a dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in IL-4 gene were examined in Swedish myasthenia gravis (MG) patients and ethnically matched healthy individuals. There were no associations between these polymorphisms and MG patients as a whole group or stratified by clinical and pathological parameters and genetic markers in MHC gene (TNF-alpha NcoI allele 2) and IL-1 gene...
