摘要
Our knowledge about genetic factors that drive the worsening of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is limited. Herein, we analyzed the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) -173G/C functional polymorphism in NMO patients and controls. Our data reveal that the frequency of the high-expression MIF genotypes (CC/GC) did not differ between the two groups. However, frequency of this genotypes was elevated in patients diagnosed with both optic neuritis and myelitis compared with patients that were diagnosed with only one symptom. Furthermore, patients carrying the CC/CG genotypes had significantly higher disability score. We conclude that MIF is associated with NMO severity rather than susceptibility.
