Ocular Manifestations in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Are Associated with Other Extra-intestinal Manifestations, Gender, and Genes Implicated in Other Immune-related Traits.

ABSTRACT: There has been considerable progress in identifying inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] susceptibility genes but little progress in examining the role of genetic variation in the development of the extra-intestinal manifestations [EIMs] of IBD. This study identified clinical, serological, and genetic factors associated with ocular EIMs [O-EIMs] in IBD.We performed a retrospective case-control study of IBD patients, comparing those with and without O-EIMs using the Cedars-Sinai IBD Research Repository and the NIDDK IBD Genetics Consortium Repository. Genotyping was performed using Illumina whole genome platforms.In all, 124 cases and 3328 controls with available clinical data were identified; 103 cases and 2808 controls had genetic data available. Erythema nodosum and peripheral arthritis particularly were common in patients with O-EIMs [p = 2.77 x 10(-13) and p = 2.58 x 10(-13), respectively] with increasing odds ratios for O-EIMs with each additional non-ocular-EIM [for ? 2 EIMs, odds ratio 14.72]. Nominal association with O-EIMs was observed at several known IBD susceptibility single nuclear polymorphisms. One locus, containing RBM19, achieved genome-wide level of significance for association with O-EIMs.In IBD, O-EIMs co-occur with musculoskeletal and skin manifestations and, in this study, are nominally associated with known IBD loci. Additional cohorts are needed to verify these results and identify additional genes.

Project description:The cancer risk of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) has not been well documented in southern Europe. This study aimed to evaluate the overall pattern of cancer risk among patients with IBD in Friuli Venezia Giulia, northeastern Italy. A population-based cohort study was performed through a record linkage between local healthcare databases and the cancer registry (1995-2013). We identified 3664 IBD patients aged 18-84 years, including 2358 with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 1306 with Crohn's disease (CD). Sex- and age-standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to compare the cancer incidence of IBD patients with the general population. The cumulative cancer risk among IBD patients reached about 10% after 10 years of follow-up. A total of 246 cancers occurred among UC patients (SIR = 1.05, 95% CI: 0.92-1.19), and 141 among CD patients (SIR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.01-1.41). As compared with the general population, no increased risk of colorectal cancers was observed for either UC or CD patients, whereas the risk of anal cancer was significantly elevated among UC patients (SIR = 6.03, 95% CI: 1.24-17.60). Increased risks were seen for specific extra-intestinal cancers, including corpus uteri (SIR = 2.67, 95% CI: 1.07-5.50) and kidney (SIR = 2.06, 95% CI: 1.03-3.69) among UC patients; thyroid (SIR = 5.58, 95% CI: 2.41-11.00) and skin non-melanoma (SIR = 1.86, 95% CI: 1.32-2.55) among CD patients. This population-based study showed that both UC and CD patients had a colorectal cancer risk similar to that of the general population. However, they were at a higher risk of developing certain extra-intestinal cancer types. Although detection biases cannot be excluded, the study findings pointed to a role of long-standing exposures to immunosuppressive therapies, underlying disease status, as well as the interactions with lifestyle factors. Our findings lent additional support to the need for monitoring the cancer burden in this at-risk population.

Project description:Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder characterized by periods of activity and remission. IBD includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), and even though IBD has not been considered as a heritable disease, there are genetic variants associated with increased risk for the disease. 5-Hydroxytriptamine (5-HT), or serotonin, exerts a wide range of gastrointestinal effects under both normal and pathological conditions. Furthermore, Serotonin Transporter (SERT) coded by Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 4 (SLC6A4) gene (located in the 17q11.1-q12 chromosome), possesses genetic variants, such as Serotonin Transporter Gene Variable Number Tandem Repeat in Intron 2 (STin2-VNTR) and Serotonin-Transporter-linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR), which have an influence over the functionality of SERT in the re-uptake and bioavailability of serotonin. The intestinal microbiota is a crucial actor in normal human gut physiology, exerting effects on serotonin, SERT function, and inflammatory processes. As a consequence of abnormal serotonin signaling and SERT function under these inflammatory processes, the use of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) has been seen to improve disease activity and extraintestinal manifestations, such as depression and anxiety. The aim of this study is to integrate scientific data linking the intestinal microbiota as a regulator of gut serotonin signaling and re-uptake, as well as its role in the pathogenesis of IBD. We performed a narrative review, including a literature search in the PubMed database of both review and original articles (no date restriction), as well as information about the SLC6A4 gene and its genetic variants obtained from the Ensembl website. Scientific evidence from in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trials regarding the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors as an adjuvant therapy in patients with IBD is also discussed. A total of 194 articles were used between reviews, in vivo, in vitro studies, and clinical trials.
