Abstract:
We performed a genome-wide association study of 19,779 nonsynonymous SNPs in 735 individuals with Crohn disease and 368 controls. A total of 7,159 of these SNPs were informative. We followed up on all 72 SNPs with P 0.4), these data suggest that the underlying biological process may be specific to Crohn disease.
