Wang et al. [18] recently identified five novel pleiotropic genesshared between BD and IBD: Zinc Finger DHHC-Type Palmitoyltransferase 2(ZDHHC2), Secernin-1 (SCRN1), InositolPolyphosphate-4-Phosphatase Type II B (INPP4B), Chromosome 1 OpenReading Frame 123 (C1orf123), and Bromodomain-Containing Protein 3(BRD3). This evidence concerns the gene BRD3 and inflammatory bowel disease.
