Abstract
Various autoantibodies have been described in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The autoimmune regulator (AIRE) functions as a transcription factor in cells responsible for the induction and maintenance of immunological tolerance. In contrast to classic autoimmune disorders, polymorphisms of the AIRE gene are not associated with inflammatory bowel disease, despite the presence of disease-specific autoantibodies.
