Immune System Regulation Gene Found
Submitted by art on Tue, 2007-01-30 07:52.
This story about the discovery of Foxp3 which is controlling a set of 30 genes involved in the immune response. The reporters leap to the conclusion that this is linked to MS, but the research didn't look at MS at all from what I can tell. An interesting result, but it is this kind of sloppy reporting that makes it important to never believe any science reporting until you have found out a lot more from other (non-journalist) sources.
