In an effort to identify genes influencing susceptibility to the disease, we have performed a population-based whole genome screen for association. In this study, 6000 microsatellite markers were typed in separately pooled DNA samples from MS patients (n=188) and matched controls (n=188). Interpretable data was obtained from 4661 of these markers. Refining analysis of the most promising markers identified 10 showing potential evidence for association.engPredisposição Genética para DoençaPortugalEsclerose MúltiplaTestes GenéticosA whole genome screen for association with multiple sclerosis in Portuguese patientsjournal article
