| Collection ID: | CO000930 |
| Collection Summary: | Patients with confirmed UC (n = 20) were recruited from either the outpatient endoscopy unit or IBD clinic at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Patients with confirmed CD (n = 20) were recruited from the IBD clinic at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. IBD diagnosis was determined by accepted clinical and histologic criteria by an IBD specialist. Non-IBD control subjects (n = 20) were recruited from patients undergoing colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening or other non-IBD related indications. Individuals who were pregnant, had known coagulopathy or bleeding disorders, known renal or hepatic impairment, prior organ transplant, or were unable to give informed consent were excluded. Blood was collected in a vacutainer without additives and allowed to clot. The sample was centrifuged within an hour of collection and serum was aliquoted. Serum samples were snap frozen with dry ice and then stored at –80°C. |
