KEGG pathway enrichment analysis identified 8 biological processes where shared genes were significantly enriched, with ‘Th17 cell differentiation’, ‘Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation’, ‘JAK-STAT signaling pathway’, ‘Inflammatory bowel disease’ and ‘Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction’ being the top five processes (Figure 5; Supplementary Table S19). Here, SOAT1 is linked to inflammatory bowel disease.
