Sponsor's own description

This study will evaluate and compare the genes of the telomere repair complex in healthy control subjects, patients with blood diseases, and patients with inflammatory bowel disease to identify what, if any, changes are associated specifically with inflammatory bowel disease. Patients between 2 and 80 years of age with ulcerative colitis or regional enteritis may be eligible for this study. Participants are recruited from the practice of Dr. Stuart Danovitch, Washington, D.C. Researchers have established that minor differences in a specific set of genes called the telomere repair complex are related to immune-mediated diseases of the bone marrow. NIH researchers are now interested in whether inflammatory bowel disease and other autoimmune diseases show a similar pattern of genetic differences. Participants provide a cell sample for evaluation of the telomere repair complex. The sample is collected via buccal swab, a gentle scraping of the inside of the cheek, and stored for use in research.
