The Genetic Analysis of multiple sclerosis


ABSTRACT: We created these data in order to identify genetic variants associated with increased susceptibility to multiple sclerosis. Cases from many parts of the world were genotyped with the Illumina 660 chip along with Swedish controls. In our analysis we also used control data from the WTCCC2 common UK controls and from other published studies.

In an attempt to map chromosomal regions carrying rare gene variants contributing to the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS), we identified segments shared identical-by-descent (IBD) using the software BEAGLE 4.0's refined IBD analysis. IBD mapping aims at identifying segments inherited from a common ancestor and shared more frequently in case-case pairs. A total of 2106 MS patients of Nordic origin and 624 matched controls were genotyped on Illumina Human Quad 660 chip and an additional 1352 ethnic  ...[more]
