DNA methylation as a mediator of HLA-DRB1*15:01 and a protective variant in multiple sclerosis
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype DRB1*15:01 is the major risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS). Here the authors find that DNA methylation at HLA-DRB1 gene mediates the effect of DRB1*15:01 and of a protective HLA variant on HLA-DRB1 expression and the risk of MS.
