The role of FAS gene variants in inflammatory bowel disease.
CONCLUSION: FAS -670A/G GG genotype seemed to be a protective allele against IBD; however, AA genotype and A allele were associated with elevated risk of IBD. In the FAS -1377G/A polymorphism, frequencies of the G allele and GG genotype were observed to be protective against IBD, whereas AA, GA genotypes, and A allele frequency increased in the patient group.
