An analysis performed on rectal biopsy samples highlighted a methylation profile in the Thyroid Hormone Receptor Associated Protein (THRAP2), Forssman Glycosyltransferase 1 (GBGT1), Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand (TNFSF), and Fucosyltransferase 7 (FUT7) that allows the differentiation of IBD patients from healthy controls [103]. The gene discussed is FUT7; the disease is inflammatory bowel disease.
