Disease ID:512
Name:Irritable bowel syndrome
Associated with:4 targets
2 immuno-relevant targets
Database Links
Disease Ontology: DOID:9778

Targets

GPR161
Comments:  Mucosal expression of GPR161 expression was decreased after infection with Campylobacter jejuni in postinfectious irritable bowel syndrome.
References:  8
5-HT3A
Role:  Functional analyses by radioligand binding assays revealed that the -42T allele causes significant up-regulation of 5-HT3A receptor cell surface expression associcated with IBS-D.
Comments:  This is the first evidence for an association of a functional variant dbSNP:rs62625044 in the microRNA-510 target site of the serotonin receptor-type 3E gene with diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome.

Mutations:  5-HT3A is associated with 1 mutation. Click here for details
MMP3
Comments:  MMP3 has been shown to be causative in the tissue injury in IBD. Several functional polymorphisms in the promoter region of the MMP3 gene are associated with increased susceptibility to IBD.
MMP9
Comments:  MMP9 is suggested to be implicated in fistula formation in IBD. Upregulated mucosal MMP9 expression correlates with disease severity. MMP9 selective inhibitors are in development for the treatment of IBD.
