Population-specific differences in the genetic susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are indicated by the fact that Crohn's disease (CD) in Japanese patients does not have any of the common CARD15 variants that are associated with CD in Caucasians. Recently, the disease-causing mutation in the IBD5 haplotype was identified. The TC haplotype, composed of L503F in SLC22A4 and -207G/C in SLC22A5 promoters, was reported to alter the function of the organic cation transporter and to be associated with CD in Caucasians. To determine whether the TC haplotype is also associated with IBD in a Japanese population, we genotyped L503F and -207G/C variants in Japanese subjects. Furthermore, we also performed a case-control association study with all representative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IBD5 using previous information of linkage disequilibrium extension reported in Japanese patients to determine whether there were variants in IBD5 specifically associated with IBD in Japanese patients.
