Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Vitamin D is considered to play a role in multiple sclerosis (MS) etiopathogenesis. We recently identified a polymorphism located in the cytochrome P450 family 24 subfamily A member 1 ( CYP24A1 ) gene, rs2762943, that was found to be associated with an increased risk for MS. CYP24A1 codes for a protein that is involved in the catabolism of the active form of vitamin D. Here, we investigated t...
