Hey guys,

I have to do a project for my biology class and I would like to do it on

multiple sclerosis.  I am still kinda new to the whole game, so I am not sure

where to start.  I was thinking about doing some thing along the lines of

gene/genetics and ms.  However, I am not sure if this is the right route to go. 

If you have any suggestions or ideas for the project and to help my

understanding of ms that would be awesome.  Or if you have any input on the

current idea, please let me know.  So far it is just an idea that I do not know

how to expand on, yet.

Thanks for all the help,

Hey ,

If you find any good studies on genetics and MS, please pass them along! I'm

not a big believer in the genetic aspect. Yes, there are families with many

cases of MS, but they tend to live in the same geographical area, eat a similar

diet, etc., so would be good to find a study that controls for those things.

Personally, there is no history of any kind of autoimmune disease in my family,

but I lived in Alaska for almost ten years. So, I think vitamin D deficiency

had a much bigger role than any genetic predisposition. I don't have a link,

but I remember finding a study of people that immigrated to Australia. They had

similar genetic makeup, but future MS rates then depended on the geographical

area where they settled, lending credence to the theory that Vitamin D mattered

more.

Another interesting topic would be the development of leaky gut and its role in

the development of autoimmune disease, including MS. I don't think it's the

*only* route to MS, but it's definitely a player. ;)
