mtDNA nt13708A variant increases the risk of multiple sclerosis.

<h4>Background</h4>Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphism is a possible factor contributing to the maternal parent-of-origin effect in multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility.<h4>Methods and findings</h4>In order to investigate the role of mtDNA variations in MS, we investigat...
