(2005, neutral): “…receptor α (IL2RA) and the interleukin-7 receptor α (IL7RA), have been proposed as strong candidates for susceptibility to MS in several studies (Gregory et al., 2007; Lundmark et al., 2007; International Multiple Sclerosis Genetics Consortium et al., 2007; International Multiple Sclerosis…”
