Genotype-phenotype analysis of the Crohn’s disease susceptibility haplotype on chromosome 5q31
Statistics from Altmetric.com
Background and aims: Recent molecular data suggest that genetic factors may underlie the disease heterogeneity observed in both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). A locus on chromosome 5q has been implicated in susceptibility to CD, and recently refined by linkage disequilibrium mapping to a conserved 250 kb haplotype (5q31). No data regarding the …
