  • Genetic architecture of the inflammatory bowel diseases across East Asian and European ancestries - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37156999

    ABSTRACT: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract with two subtypes: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). To date, most IBD genetic associations were derived from individuals of European ancestries (EUR). Here we report the largest IBD study of individuals of East Asian ancestries (EAS), including 14,393 cases and 15,456 controls. We found 80 IBD loci in EAS alone and 320 when meta-analyzed with ~370,000 EUR individuals (~30,000 cases), among which 81 are novel. EAS enriched coding variants implicate many new IBD genes, including ADAP1 and GIT2. While IBD genetic effects are generally consistent across ancestries, genetics underlying CD appears more ancestry dependent than UC, driven by both allele frequency (NOD2) and effect (TN

  • Host-microbe interactions have shaped the genetic architecture of inflammatory bowel disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 23128233

    ABSTRACT: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), the two common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), affect over 2.5 million people of European ancestry with rising prevalence in other populations. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and subsequent meta-analyses of CD and UC as separate phenotypes implicated previously unsuspected mechanisms, such as autophagy, in pathogenesis and showed that some IBD loci are shared with other inflammatory diseases. Here we expand knowledge of relevant pathways by undertaking a meta-analysis of CD and UC genome-wide association scans, with validation of significant findings in more than 75,000 cases and controls. We identify 71 new associations, for a total of 163 IBD loci that meet genome-wide significance thresholds. Most loci cont
