<p>The present invention provides methods and systems to diagnose the ulcerative colitis (UC) subtype of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by detecting the presence or absence of one or more variant alleles in the GLI1, MDR1, and/or ATG16L1 genes. Advantageously, with the present invention, it is possible to provide a diagnosis of UC and to differentiate between UC and Crohn's disease (CD) with increased accuracy.</p> |
