Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether gene polymorphisms of ATG16L1 and IL23R are associated with the susceptibility of Crohn's disease (CD) in Chinese population. METHODS: A total of 420 patients with CD and 450 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers from Chinese Han population were included in this study. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2241880 of ATG16L1 and rs11209026, rs1004819, and rs1495965 of IL23R...
