Background: Recent genome-wide association studies in Caucasian populations identified IL23R and ATG16L1 as susceptibility genes to Crohn's disease (CD). We tested 5 IL23R single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 12 ATG16L1 SNPs in Korean patients to determine whether these genes are associated wi

Background: A German genome-wide nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (nsSNP) association study identified ATG16L1 as a Crohn's disease (CD) susceptibility gene. The association appeared to be confined to the nsSNP rs2241880 and was confirmed in 2 German independent case-control collections
Background: Recent genome-wide studies have implicated the autophagy genes ATG16L1 and IRGM in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD). We investigated whether these genes were associated with CD in Canadian children. ## Methods: A case-control study was carried out at 2 pediatric gastroenterolog
Background: IBD5, IL23R, and ATG16L1 genetic variations are established Crohn's disease (CD) risks alleles. We evaluated these in a population-based case-control study within a cohort to determine their penetrance, population attributable risk, independence, and relationship to other established CD
## Background: The rs2241880A/G variant of the ATG16L1 gene has been associated with susceptibility to ileal Crohn's disease (CD) in adults. Our aim was to assess whether germline variation of ATG16L1 acts as an independent determinant of susceptibility to childhood-onset CD in the high-incidence S
