Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a food allergy mostly affecting infants, characterized by severe vomiting and shock, and its diagnosis can be delayed due to unclear genetic markers.
This study analyzed the genomes of 41 FPIES patients, identifying significant genetic variants linked to the syndrome, including genes that may influence immune response and gut health.
The results enhance understanding of FPIES' genetic basis and could pave the way for better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies in the future.
