Core Tip |
This study shows that association of apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphism is associated with risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in Saudi patients. Allele ε2 and its heterozygous genotypes increase the susceptibility to IBD while ε3 allele and ε3/ε3 genotype are protective for IBD. APOE ε4 allele also increases the risk for IBD and is associated with early age at onset. The frequency distribution of APOE alleles and genotypes is not affected by gender or type of IBD (familial or sporadic). |
