## Background: Three mutations (r702w, g908r, and 1007fs) of the card15/nod2 gene associate with crohn's disease (cd). despite a strong linkage of cd to the inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) 1 region, only 16% of the finnish cd patients carry 1 of these 3 mutations, pointing to the possibility of ye
## Background: Nod2/card15, the first identified susceptibility gene in crohn's disease (cd), is associated with ileal stenosis and increased frequency of surgery. anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody (asca), a serological marker for cd, is associated with ileal location and a high likelihood for
Background: Antibodies directed against Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ASCA), perinuclear components of neutrophils (pANCA), and porin protein C of Escherichia coli (anti-OmpC) are reported to be associated with disease phenotype and may be of diagnostic importance in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Si
