摘要:
This invention provides methods of diagnosing or predicting susceptibility or protection against Inflammatory Bowel Disease in an individual by determining the presence or absence of genetic variants in the genes for IL-12, IL-23, and/or IL-17 receptors. In one embodiment, a method of the invention is practiced by determining the presence or absence of risk and/or protective haplotypes of IL-12, IL-23, and/or IL-17 receptors.
摘要:
The present invention relates to prognosing, diagnosing and treating of Crohn's disease. The invention also provides prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment that are based upon the presence of one or more genetic risk factors at the ZNF365 genetic locus
摘要:
Methods of diagnosing susceptibility to metabolic insulin resistance and other related conditions are disclosed. The method provides means of diagnosing susceptibility to insulin resistance in Hispanic Americans by determining the presence of a risk haplotype at the LPL locus, the LPIN1 locus, and/or elevated levels of gamma-glutamyl transferase.

This invention provides methods of diagnosing or predicting susceptibility to Crohn's Disease by determining the presence or absence of genetic variants. In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods to diagnose and/or predict susceptibility to Crohn's Disease in an individual by determining the presence or absence of anti-Cbir1 reactivity and the presence or absence of TLR5 risk variants. In another embodiment, the present invention provides methods to diagnose Crohn's Disease by determining the presence or absence of NFKB1 haplotype H3 and/or ASCA expression. In another embodiment, the present invention provides methods of diagnosing Crohn's Disease by determining the presence or absence of Cbir1 specific peripheral blood T cell proliferation.

The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing susceptibility to Inflammatory Bowel Disease and subtypes of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method of diagnosing susceptibility to Inflammatory Bowel Disease by determining the presence of one or more risk variants at the DR3 locus, GATA3 locus, SIN(EFS) locus, BTLA locus, LIGHT locus and MAGE locus.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of determining a risk of pouchitis development following a surgical procedure where an internal pouch is created in a patient with ulcerative colitis. The method is practiced by determining in the patient the presence or absence of a pouchitis-associated allele linked to an interferon &ggr; receptor locus, where the presence of the pouchitis-associated allele indicates an increased risk of pouchitis development. The interferon &ggr; receptor locus to which the pouchitis-associated allele is linked can be, for example, an interferon &ggr; receptor 1 gene. A pouchitis-associated allele useful in the invention can be, for example, an allele located within the sixth intron of the interferon &ggr; receptor 1 gene, such as a FA1 microsatellite 171 allele.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of diagnosing or predicting susceptibility to a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease in a subject having Crohn's disease by determining the presence or absence of IgA anti-I2 antibodies in the subject, where the presence of the IgA anti-I2 antibodies indicates that the subject has a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease. In one embodiment, a method of the invention is practiced by further determining the presence or absence in the subject of a NOD2 variant, anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA), IgA anti-OmpC antibodies, or perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (pANCA). The methods of the invention can be used to diagnose or predict susceptibility to a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease, for example, a fibrostenotic subtype, a subtype characterized by the need for small bowel surgery, or a subtype characterized by the absence of features of ulcerative colitis.
摘要:
A novel association between IBD and a polymorphism at amino acid residue 241 of ICAM-1 has been discovered. In accordance with the present invention there is provided methods of screening for IBD, methods for treating IBD, antibodies specifically reactive wish ICAM-1 encoded by R241 allele and kits which exploit the inventive methods.
