Genetic Polymorphisms (ApaI, FokI, BsmI, and TaqI) of the Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) Influence the Natural History and Phenotype of Crohn’s Disease

Abstract excerpt
Vitamin D receptor (VDR) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) modulate vitamin D/VDR signaling, a key pathway in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis. This study investigates how ApaI, BsmI, TaqI, and FokI SNPs affect IBD phenotype and progression. A total of 76 Crohn’s disease (CD) and 68 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients were genotyped. On initial bivariate analysis, the AA genotype of ApaI was...
