‼️New publication‼️
Beecham et al. recently led an IBDGC study showing that higher African ancestry in a Hispanic IBD cohort is linked to greater risk of penetrating Crohn’s disease, perianal disease, and IBD‑related surgery, and identified ancestry‑specific genetic signals at key IBD loci.

🧬 What drives perianal Crohn’s disease?
Our study links a loss-of-function variant in CFB to increased pCD risk. This mutation disrupts complement cleavage + phagocytosis, revealing a new immune mechanism in pCD pathogenesis.

Genetic coding variant in complement factor B (CFB) is associated with increased risk for perianal Crohn’s disease and leads to impaired CFB cleavage and phagocytosis
Objective Perianal Crohn’s disease (pCD) occurs in up to 40% of patients with CD and is associated with poor quality of life, limited treatment responses and poorly understood aetiology. We performed ...
