| Özet |
| Background and AimMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurodegenerative autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Genetic risk factors are known to contribute to the etiology of MS. Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene C677T polymorphism has been associated with susceptibility to various autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate a possible association between the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism and MS in Turkish patients.MethodsThe study included 130 MS patients and 150 group-matched controls. Genomic DNA was isolated and genotyped using polymerase chain reaction–based restriction fragment length polymorphism assay for the MTHFR gene exon C677T polymorphism.ResultsThe genotype and allele frequencies of C677T polymorphism showed statistically significant differences between MS patients and controls (P = 0.002 and P = 0.002; odds … |
