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:
http://www.inthenews.co.uk/news/science/science/genetic-clues-behind-coeliac-disease-discovered-$1097750.htm (This is a Xpost from BT.) |

--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. |

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. Billye |

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.
