Results: We identified seven DDR-related genes (Arid5b, Cox5a, Erbb2, Ube2l3, Gpx1, H2bcl2, and Mapk3), 33 DNA methylation genes, and two DDR-related proteins (CD274 and FCGR2A) which were all causally associated with IBD and its subtypes. This evidence concerns the gene FCGR2A and inflammatory bowel disease.
