Abstract:
Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD),including ulcerative colitis(UC)and Crohn's disease(CD),is a group of chronic and relapsed inflammatory diseases of the intestinal tract. Genetic factors together with immunological, environmental and infectious factors contribute to the pathogenesis of IBD,however,the precise etiology is still uncertain. Susceptibility genes have great impact on the occurrence,development,clinical phenotypes,and even follow-up treatment of IBD,which indicates the significant roles of genetic factors in this disease. In this article,the well-studied and newly found genes related to IBD and their single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)were reviewed.
