Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a complex and heterogeneous disorder, characterized by a deficit in enteric nervous system. Genome-wide studies implied GABRG2, RELN and NRG3 might be involved in HSCR etiology. Here, we aimed to assess genetic variants in GABRG2, RELN and NRG3 that may confer susceptibility to HSCR and explore genetic interaction networks in HSCR.
