Default Anyone know more specific information about this?

It just came through my Yahoo/Google search service this morning (which automatically searches in the world's news stories for certain combinations of words), but it's rather inspecific:

Default That link does work for me--

--though I had to cut and paste it.

Anne at OBT managed to track down the original abstract:

http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/vao...bs/ng2058.html

--and promised to try to get the whole article.

It's intriguing from the standpoint that most genetic work into the origins of cleiac--indeed, into the origins of most autoimmune conditions-- has centered on the human leukoctye antigen (HLA) inheritence patterns. This abstract talks about an entirely different genetic allele.

Default Thanks

Thanks Glen,
That link worked, but it's way above my head. Maybe if I read the entire article I'll have a better understanding.

I also used a copy and paste, and it worked. Let's see if I can get the link to show up in this post. http://www.inthenews.co.uk/news/science/science/genetic-clues-behind-coeliac-disease-discovered-$1097750.htm
Very interesting article. Thanks a bunch.

Sorry, the link doesn't work for me either. Wonder what is going wrong with it?

I think I read about it somewhere else and I think the point is that they found a gene marker totally unrelated to those they knew of before.

I read it as NorthernLights. . .there is a new gene location that they found, not related to the markers previously identified. So, more research! But, to me this is good news as there is a certain percentage of people with biopsy diagnosed CD who don't have either of the current genes that they associate with it.
