Yamnaya Herders’ DNA Sheds Light on Europeans’ Genetic History and Multiple Sclerosis

29 يناير 2024

A new study analyzing the DNA of Yamnaya herders has provided valuable insights into the genetic history of Europeans and its connection to multiple sclerosis (MS). The research indicates that genetic variations associated with an increased risk of MS are more prevalent in populations with Yamnaya ancestry. This finding suggests a potential link between ancient migration patterns and the prevalence of MS in certain populations. By studying ancient DNA, scientists continue to uncover crucial information about the origins and genetic makeup of different populations and their susceptibility to diseases like MS.
