Our study confirms the importance of IBD5 in determining CD susceptibility, and demonstrates that two independent genetic factors may be responsible for the association observed within this locus.
The IGR2198a_1 and IGR2096a_1 variants of the IBD5 region were found to be associated with Crohn's disease (CD) in the Hungarian population, while IGR2230a_1 does not seem to confer risk for the disease.
Our data suggest that SNPs and haplotype in the IBD5 SLC22A4/SLC22A5 region contribute to the development of particularly refractory Crohn's disease in the Slovenian population, and expression studies in blood lymphocytes and colon tissue biopsies and eQTL analysis suggest that SLC22A5 is the main gene in the IBD5 region contributing to the IBD pathogenesis.
In summary, our results suggested that the IBD5 locus contributes to the susceptibility of CD in a per-allele manner in adults, children and Caucasians, and the locus contributes to the susceptibility of UC in a recessive manner in adult and Caucasian populations.
To investigate the interaction of interleukin-23 receptor (IL23R) (rs1004819 and rs2201841), autophagy-related 16-like 1 (ATG16L1) (rs2241880), caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 15 (CARD15) genes, and IBD5 locus in Crohn's disease (CD) patients.
Seven recently published Crohn's disease genome-wide association studies have confirmed prior findings related to the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2) gene and the IBD5 locus.
Multivariate analysis showed independent CD association for carriers of ATG16L1 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.8, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-3.24), IBD5-IGR2230 (OR = 2.16, 95% CI 1.30-3.59), and IL23R-rs10889677 (OR = 2.13, 95% CI 1.39-3.28) while retaining association for NOD2 mutation carriers (OR = 4.45, 95% CI 2.68-7.38), IBD family history (OR = 2.75, 95% CI 1.42-5.31), tobacco (OR = 2.06, 95% CI 1.35-3.14), and Jewish ethnicity (OR = 20.1, 95% CI 2.16-186.8).
The aims of this study were to replicate the association of IL23R with Crohn's disease (CD), examine subphenotype relationships, and look for evidence of epistasis with the known CD susceptibility gene CARD15 and susceptibility haplotype IBD5 in a large collection of CD patients.
We then performed an extension analysis combining these data with the U.K. data from the initial study to give a total of 1236 U.K. Crohn's disease cases and 1235 controls to estimate disease risk and test for interaction with the CARD15 and IBD5 risk loci and for association with disease subtypes.
The aims of this study were to replicate the association of IL23R with Crohn's disease (CD), examine subphenotype relationships, and look for evidence of epistasis with the known CD susceptibility gene CARD15 and susceptibility haplotype IBD5 in a large collection of CD patients.
We confirm the importance of IBD5 to CD susceptibility, demonstrate that the locus may play a role in NJ individuals only, and establish that IRF1, PDLIM, and P4HA2 may be equally as likely to contain the IBD5 causal variant as the OCTN genes.
The aims of the study were to replicate the association with CD, examine subphenotype associations and statistical interactions with CARD15, IL23R, and the IBD5 risk haplotype, as well as explore the association with UC.
The objective of this study was to assess the contribution of the SLC22A4 variant (1672T) and SLC22A5 variant (-207C) together with three IBD5 haplotype markers in the previously uninvestigated Swedish CD population.
