Additional File 3:
Additional Figure 3 – TNF/LT haplotypes in MS patients and controls. A: TNF/LT haplotype frequencies in all MS patients and controls; haplotype designations and entering SNP alleles are shown below. B: Frequencies of extended haplotypes including DRB1*15(2) and different TNF/LT haplotypes in all MS patients and controls. Haplotypes are marked in accordance with DRB1 allele name and TNF/LT haplotype designation given in A. For better visualization, the same axis scales were used.
