The UPR in general is an evolutionary highly conserved mechanism, with one branch in particular (the IRE 1-XBP 1 axis) conserved from yeast to metazoans including man.展开更多

The understanding of the genetic basis of IBD has been significantly expanded with the advent of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) which has resulted in the identification of more than 30 loci that are associated with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).展开更多
