Slipping the barrier: how variants in CARD15 could alter permeability of the intestinal wall and population health

S Schreiber. Gut. 2006 Mar.

Abstract

The increased intestinal permeability in Crohn's disease is associated with the presence of variants in the CARD15 gene that are regarded as causative for Crohn's disease, suggesting a genetic rather than an environmental background for intestinal barrier dysfunction in Crohn's disease
