Crohn disease: 82 genomewide association studies have reported on genetic factors in Crohn disease, check out the HuGE Navigator
Ulcerative colitis: 28 genomewide association studies have reported on genetic factors, check out the HuGE Navigator
The most commonly reported genes are NOD2/CARD15 and IL23R
