“Large-scale sequencing identifies multiple genes and rare variants associated with Crohn’s disease susceptibility” published in Nature Genetics.
As product of a highly collaborative effort in the International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Consortium, “Large-scale sequencing identifies multiple genes and rare variants associated with Crohn’s disease susceptibility” is now published in Nature Genetics.
We directly implicated ten genes that elevate or lower a person’s risk of Crohn’s disease, a form of inflammatory bowel disease. Six of those genes had no previous links to the disorder, and four are in regions of the genome that other studies had linked to Crohn’s disease.
