Digestive diseases (Basel, Switzerland) - 1 Jan 2016

Guo Changcun, Wu Kaichun

Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and IBD is now recognized as a complex disease that results from interplay between genetic and environment factors. To date, over 160 IBD-susceptible loci have been identified using genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The risk genes identified in these studies are involved in various pathways in innate and adaptive...
