Genetic telltale identified for Crohns Disease

Okay, so Crohn's Disease isn't ulcerative colitis, but the two are pretty close, so this is quite encouraging. I've always felt there was a genetic component, since my Mum has psoriasis and my sister has psoriatical arthritis - and like UC, those are immune system disorders. So it seemed reasonable.

Still, good news.
