Description
RNA was isolated from rectal biopsies from 190 pediatric patients undergoing diagnostic colonoscopy for inflammatory bowel diseases, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Single-end, 75-bp sequencing was performed, and raw reads aligned to the human genome using Gencode v 24 as reference. We included 14085 protein-coding mRNA genes in downstream analyses, where cutoffs of fold change>1.5 and FDR<0.05 were considered significant. Overall design: RNA-sequencing of rectal biopsies obtained from pediatric IBD and control patients.
