Key Words	Irritable bowel syndrome; Genetic polymorphisms; Gene
Core Tip	The main genetic polymorphisms encountered in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are: Serotonin transporter (SERT) gene (SLC6A4), guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-3 (GNbeta3), serotonin type 3 receptor genes (HTR3A), (HTR3E), (HTR2A), the tumor necrosis factor superfamily member TL1A gene (TNFSF15). We performed a review of existent data, that studied genetic polymorphisms in IBS patients. We found that the actual IBS subgroups are not sufficient in order to identify distinct phenotypes and further in leading to new guiding principles for treatment. This sistematic review demonstrates the need for genetic studies with an increasing number of subjects, because contradictory findings in terms of IBS subtype have been reported.
