Influence of histocompatibility genes on disease susceptibility and treatment response in patients with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis treated with interferon beta-1a

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common, non-traumatic cause of neurological disability in young adults. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of HLA class II alleles DRB1* and DQB1* on susceptibility to relapsing–remitting (RR) MS and response to interferon (IFN) beta-1a treatme...
