Correlation between the immune responses to collagens type I, III, IV and V and Klebsiella pneumoniae in patients with Crohn's disease and ankylosing spondylitis (2001)

Tiwana, H., Natt, R. S., Benitez-Brito, R., Shah, S., Wilson, C., Bridger, S., ...

Background. Increased levels of collagen types I, III and V are found in strictures of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) compared with normal gut tissue. Type IV collagen is present in...

A genomewide analysis provides evidence for novel linkages in inflammatory bowel disease in a large European cohort.

Hampe, J, Schreiber, S, Shaw, S H, Lau, K F, Bridger, S, Macpherson, A J, ...

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by a chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation, typically starting in early adulthood. IBD is subdivided into two subtypes, on the basis of clinical...

Congenital contractural deformities of the fingers and arthropathy.

Martin, J R, Huang, S N, Lacson, A, Payne, R H, Bridger, S, Fraser, F C, ...

Four patients are described who presented with congenital finger contractures and arthropathy. There was synovial cell hyperplasia and giant cells but no inflammatory process. Radiographs showed...

Why children with inflammatory bowel disease are diagnosed at a younger age than their affected parent

Lee, J, Bridger, S, McGregor, C, Macpherson, A, Jones, J

BACKGROUND—Genetic anticipation has been proposed to explain observed age differences at diagnosis of Crohn's disease in affected parents and offspring.
AIMS—To compare affected parent-child...

A simple method for assessing intestinal inflammation in Crohn's disease

Tibble, J, Teahon, K, Thjodleifsson, B, Roseth, A, Sigthorsson, G, Bridger, S, ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS—Assessing the presence and degree of intestinal inflammation objectively, simply, and reliably is a significant problem in gastroenterology. We assessed faecal excretion of...

Fine mapping of the chromosome 3p susceptibility locus in inflammatory bowel disease

Hampe, J, Lynch, N, Daniels, S, Bridger, S, Macpherson, A, Stokkers, P, ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS—Genetic predisposition for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been demonstrated by epidemiological and genetic linkage studies. Genetic linkage of IBD to chromosome 3 has...

In siblings with similar genetic susceptibility for inflammatory bowel disease, smokers tend to develop Crohn's disease and non-smokers develop ulcerative colitis

Bridger, S, Lee, J C W, Bjarnason, I, Jones, J E Lennard, Macpherson, A J

Background and aims: Smoking tobacco has opposite effects on the different forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It predisposes to the development of Crohn's disease (CD) yet is associated with...
