Clinical sub-groups of multiple sclerosis in relation to HLA: DR alleles as possible markers of disease progression.
CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SCIENCES(1985)
摘要
We have examined the distribution of HLA antigens in 70 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients divided in three groups defined according to clinical criteria: benign MS, severe MS, cerebellar MS. We have found a significant association between severe MS and HLA-DR2, and between benign MS of more than 15 years of evolution and HLA-DR3. We review previous work along the same line and conclude that the association of HLA antigens with "clinical subgroups of MS" could indicate a genetically based heterogeneity of the disease and offer help in establishing a prognosis.
