An extremes of phenotype approach confirms significant genetic heterogeneity in patients with ulcerative colitis

2021-10-12

Abstract excerpt

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a major form of inflammatory bowel disease with increasing global incidence. There is significant phenotypic heterogeneity defined by a range of clinical variables including age of onset and disease extent. Clinical outcomes range from long-term remission on minimal therapy to surgical resection. Close to 70% of UC risk can be attributed to genetics and understanding the genetic mechanis...
