Cystic fibrosis risk variants confer protection against inflammatory bowel disease

2024-12-05

Abstract excerpt

Genetic mutations that yield defective cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator ( CFTR ) protein cause cystic fibrosis, a life-limiting autosomal recessive Mendelian disorder. A protective role of CFTR loss-of-function mutations in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been suggested, but its evidence has been inconclusive and contradictory. Here, leveraging the largest IBD exome sequencing dataset to date, comprisi...
