TL;DR: A meta-analysis of six ulcerative colitis genome-wide association study datasets found many candidate genes that provide potentially important insights into disease pathogenesis, including IL1R2, IL8RA-IL8RB, IL7R, IL12B, DAP, PRDM1, JAK2, IRF5, GNA12 and LSP1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association identifies multiple ulcerative colitis susceptibility loci

TL;DR: Two distinct genome-wide association studies of ulcerative colitis are presented and their joint analysis with a previously published scan shows that roughly half of the known Crohn's disease associations are shared with ulceratives colitis, thereby providing insight into disease pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep Resequencing of GWAS Loci Identifies Rare Variants in CARD9, IL23R and RNF186 That Are Associated with Ulcerative Colitis

TL;DR: It is suggested that rare variants in genes identified by genome-wide association in UC are unlikely to contribute significantly to the overall variance for the disease, and are expected to help focus functional studies of the corresponding disease loci.
