HLA-G Ins/Del polymorphism and +3142C/G SNP are not related to neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) development, disability status or anti-aquaporin 4 presence in Brazilian patients

In conclusion, the 3′ untranslated region 14 bp Ins/Del and +3142C/G polymorphisms seem not to be associated with NMOSD susceptibility, autoantibody production, nor a neurological deficit in patients.
