You are right---there is not much information on the hereditary factors related to GBS. As you know, the name itself ("syndrome" instead of "disease") indicates that there are unknown causes, and GBP is not always caused by a disease-causing agent.
The Boston Medical Center is currently studying your exact question: what are the hereditary factors in GBS (related to vaccines). You can read more about this research study at: http://www.vaccinesafety.org/CISA/GBS.html.
Good luck in your search for information! It seems as this is a condition that continues being studied, as there are more questions than answers.
