Irritable bowel syndrome

From SNPedia

Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS) is a functional disorder that is a diagnosis of exclusion. IBS is distinct from Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), which is considered to be an autoimmune condition. IBS is classified into subtypes: diarrhea predominant(IBS-D), constipation-predominant (IBS-C), alternating pattern (IBS-A) .

IBS has been connected to polymorphisms in the serotonin transporter gene, (SLC6A4) [PMID 24069428].

The following mutations have also been implicated in studies [PMID 24574707]:
