Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have also identified several non-HLA genetic variants linked to MS, including those in the interleukin-7 receptor (IL7RA), interleukin-2 receptor (IL2RA), CD58, and CLEC16A genes, indicating a shared genetic foundation with other autoimmune diseases [30]. The gene discussed is CLEC16A; the disease is autoimmune disease.
