Exploration of the potential causative genes for inflammatory bowel disease: Transcriptome-wide association analysis, Mendelian randomization analysis and Bayesian colocalisation

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) poses a complex challenge due to its intricate underlying mechanisms, and curative treatments remain elusive. Consequently, there is an urgent need to identify genes causally associated with IBD. Methods: We extracted blood eQTL data from the GTExv8.ALL.W...
