| Core Tip |
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a complex symptom-based disorder without established biomarkers or putative pathophysiology. This review gives new insights on how genetic determinations influence in clinical manifestations, treatment responses and potential biomarkers of IBS. Although a number of IBS- related genes have been identified, the majority of the identified genes required further validation as each of them may only contribute to the pathophysiology in 1%-5% in patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders. |
