Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been pivotal to increasing our understanding of intestinal disease. However, the mode by which genetic variation results in phenotypic change remains largely unknown, with many associated polymorphisms likely to modulate gene expression. Analyses of expres...

Although corticosteroids remain a mainstay of therapy for UC, a meta-regression of cohort studies in acute severe ulcerative colitis (UC) showed that 29% of patients fail corticosteroid therapy and require escalation of medical management or colectomy. We aimed to determine whether genes expressed i...

Pouchitis is a common complication for ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery. Similarly to IBD, both innate host factors such as genetics, and environmental stimuli including the tissue-associated microbiome have been implicated in the pathogenesis. In thi...

ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 

This study involved evaluation of the tissue associated microbiome of the ileal pouch following surgery for ulcerative colitis (UC) or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Individuals were recruited, with biopsies taken from the ileal pouch and the pre-pouch ileum, microbial DNA was extracted an...
