项目摘要

Project Summary Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a devastating autoimmune neuroinflammatory disease with a strikingly increasing incidence world-wide, implicating the influence of environmental factors. While genetics of MS are beginning to be understood, they can account for at most ~30% of the disease risk. The remainder of the disease risk is accounted for by environmental factors and gene-by-environment (G×E) interactions. Mechanisms of G×E in MS are not well understood, and are difficult to study in humans. Mounting evidence implicates a novel environmental risk factor for MS: dysregulation of the gut microbiome. In this application, we propose to take a genome-wide approach to identify gene × microbiome interactions in a novel and powerful mouse genetics system. These studies cannot be carried out in humans, and they will provide important mechanistic understanding of G×E in autoimmune disease of the CNS, and deliver cause vs. effect distinctions that are lacking in epidemiologic studies.

项目概要多发性硬化症（MS）是一种破坏性的自身免疫性神经炎症性疾病，其发病率急剧增加多发性硬化症的发病率在世界范围内有所增加，这表明环境因素的影响。可以理解，它们最多可占疾病风险的 30% 左右。由环境因素和基因与环境（G×E）相互作用解释。多发性硬化症尚未得到很好的了解，也很难在人类身上进行研究。越来越多的证据表明，这与一部小说有关。 MS 的环境危险因素：肠道微生物组失调在本申请中，我们建议采取一种措施。全基因组方法来识别新型且强大的小鼠遗传学中基因×微生物组的相互作用这些研究无法在人体中进行，但它们将提供重要的机制。了解中枢神经系统自身免疫性疾病中的 G×E，并提供因果区别缺乏流行病学研究。
