Genome-wide association study of gastrointestinal disorders reinforces the link between the digestive tract and the nervous system

2019-10-21

Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors are recognized to contribute to common gastrointestinal (GI) diseases such as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We conducted genome-wide association analyses based on 456,414 individuals and identified 27 independent and significant loci for GORD, PUD and IBS, including SNPs associated with PUD...
