Journal ArticleDOI

Host-microbe interactions have shaped the genetic architecture of inflammatory bowel disease

Luke Jostins, +105 more
- 01 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis genome-wide association scans is undertaken, followed by extensive validation of significant findings, with a combined total of more than 75,000 cases and controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide meta-analysis increases to 71 the number of confirmed Crohn's disease susceptibility loci

Andre Franke, +97 more
- 01 Dec 2010 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of six Crohn's disease genome-wide association studies and a series of in silico analyses highlighted particular genes within these loci implicated functionally interesting candidate genes including SMAD3, ERAP2, IL10, IL2RA, TYK2, FUT2, DNMT3A, DENND1B, BACH2 and TAGAP.
Journal ArticleDOI

CX3CR1-Mediated Dendritic Cell Access to the Intestinal Lumen and Bacterial Clearance

TL;DR: A myeloid-derived mucosal DC in mice is identified, which populates the entire lamina propria of the small intestine, and CX3CR1-dependent processes, which control host interactions of specialized DCs with commensal and pathogenic bacteria, may regulate immunological tolerance and inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis identifies 29 additional ulcerative colitis risk loci, increasing the number of confirmed associations to 47.

Carl A. Anderson, +113 more
- 01 Mar 2011 - 
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

Crohn’s disease: Th1, Th17 or both? The change of a paradigm: new immunological and genetic insights implicate Th17 cells in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease

TL;DR: Both Th1 and Th17 cells are important mediators of inflammation in Crohn’s disease, although activities previously ascribed to IL12 may be mediated by IL23.
