ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCG2 (BCRP) and ABCB1 (MDR1) variants are not associated with disease susceptibility, disease phenotype response to medical therapy or need for surgeryin Hungarian patients with inflammatory bowel diseases

Abstract

MDR1 and ABCG2 SNPs were not associated with disease susceptibility or disease phenotype in Hungarian patients, and variant alleles did not predict the response to medical therapy or the need for surgery. Further studies are needed to clarify the association between the presence of ABCG2 variants and arthritis in UC.
