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.

The present invention provides a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease (CD) by determining whether perinuclear anti-neutrophil antibodies (pANCA) are present in a patient with CD, where the presence of pANCA indicates the clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis (UC). The invention also provides a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of CD by detecting an Arg.sup.241 allele at an ICAM-1 locus in a patient with CD, where the Arg.sup.241 allele indicates a clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis. In addition, the invention provides a method of diagnosing a pANCA-positive subtype of CD by detecting an Arg.sup.241 allele at an ICAM-1 locus in a patient with CD, where the Arg.sup.241 allele indicates the pANCA-positive subtype of CD.
摘要:
A common long term problem after Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis (IPAA) is the inflammation of the pouch, called pouchitis. Additionally, about 5-10% of patients undergoing IPAA with a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis at the time of surgery are subsequently diagnosed with Crohn's disease. In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods of diagnosing and predicting susceptibility to pouchitis after IPAA by detecting the presence or absence of pANCA and/or Cbir1 Flagellin expression.

Provided herein is a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease (CD) by determining whether perinuclear anti-neutrophil antibody (pANCA) is present in a patient with CD, where the presence of pANCA indicates a clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis (UC). Also provided is a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease in a patient with CD by determining whether pANCA or speckling anti-pan polymorphonuclear antibody (SAPPA) is present in the patient with CD, where the presence of pANCA indicates a clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis and where the presence of SAPPA indicates a clinical subtype of CD having perforating, fistulizing or small bowel obstructive disease. The invention further provides a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease in a patient with CD by determining the presence or absence of ANCA, pANCA, SAPPA and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) in the patient with CD, where the presence of pANCA combined with the absence of ASCA indicate a clinical subtype of CD with features of UC, the presence of SAPPA indicates a clinical subtype of CD having perforating or fistulizing disease or small bowel obstructive disease, and the presence of ASCA combined with the absence of ANCA indicates a clinical subtype of CD lacking features of ulcerative colitis and having perforating or fistulizing disease or small bowel obstructive disease. Kits for diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease, which contain neutrophil and antigen specific for ASCA, also are provided.
