Mutation spectrum of NOD2 reveals recessive inheritance as a main driver of Early Onset Crohn’s Disease

Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), clinically defined as Crohn’s disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), or IBD-unclassified, results in chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract in genetically susceptible hosts. Pediatric onset IBD represents ≥ 25% of all IBD diagnoses and often pre...
