Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD; MIM# 266600) is subdivided on the basis of clinical findings as either Crohn's disease ( CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), or indeterminate colitis (IC). Three previously described mutations within the IBD susceptibility gene CARD15 (R702W, G908R, 1007fs) increase susceptibility to CD with a terminal ileal and/or ileocolonic location and fibrostenosing behavior. We undertook an association study using 477 unrelated IBD patients ( 248 CD, 172 UC, 57 IC) and 104 population controls to determine whether these previously described associations could be replicated in a small, accurately phenotyped cohort. Case-control and family-based approaches were employed to analyze CARD15 mutant allele and haplotype data. Analyses were initially performed in unstratified IBD cohorts. The R702W mutant allele was associated with CD on case-control analysis (q=0.036, P=.004), and 1007fs with CD on pedigree disequilibrium testing (P=.020). All 3 CARD15 mutations increased susceptibility to a variety of CD subphenotypic manifestations, including early-onset CD in individuals with a family history of IBD, and CD complicated by extraintestinal disease. We also present evidence to suggest that R702W may predispose to a more generalized form of CD. Additionally, we confirm that CARD15 mutations are associated with terminal ileal/ileocolonic, and to a lesser extent, fibrostenosing CD.
