Association Between Genetic Variants in theIL-23RGene and Early-Onset Crohn's Disease: Results From a Case-Control and Family-Based Study Among Canadian Children

Abstract: Our findings confirm recently reported genome-wide associations between the IL-23R gene and CD. They suggest that the gene is also associated with pediatric-onset CD among Canadian children.

“…Our results provide an independent confirmation of the association between the candidate genetic variation IL23R and cd (10), and reinforce the role of this new polymorphism as a genetic determinant of CD. Further research is necessary to understand how IL23R contributes to disease susceptibility in CD.…”

“…The role attributed to IL23R is not to actively induce the differentiation of naive T cells, but rather to stabilise the already differentiated Th17 sub-population (9). evidence for genetic risk factors for CD is well established with respect to the NOD2)/CARD15 gene (10). In 1996, Hugot et al discovered NOD2/CARD15, the first gene identified to be associated with IbD (11).…”

“…Moreover, we found no statistical evidence for epistatic interaction between IL23R, ATG16L1, OCTN1/2, and CARD15 genes. Since our cohort also included a large number of pediatric cases (368 diagnosed at age < 19 years), this study confirmed that the rs2241880 polymorphism in the ATG16L1 [34,37] gene and the rs7517847, rs11209026 polymorphisms in the IL23R gene [22,25,[27][28][29][30] also influence susceptibility to CD in pediatric-onset patients, at allele and genotype frequencies comparable to that seen in adults.…”

“…The association of this variant appeared statistically independent from Arg381Gln and not in linkage disequilibrium (r 2 = 0.03) [15] . A large number of replications in adult- [20][21][22][23][24] and pediatric-onset [25][26][27][28][29] cohorts have been reported, but no significant association with specific CD sub-phenotype has been identified. Moreover, an association with UC has also been observed [23,24,28,30,31] .…”

“…Multiple SNPs showing an association with both CD and UC have been identified in the IL23R gene by recent GWA studies. These findings were meanwhile replicated in a number of adult [13,45] and paediatric [46][47][48][49][50] cohorts. However, no associations were seen in a Japanese cohort [51].…”
