CONCLUSIONS: 
We
 have sucessfully employed a conserved extended haplotype-matching 
strategy and identified a novel additional celiac disease risk variant 
in the lncRNA HGC14. This lncRNA seems to regulate the expression of 
NOD1 in an allele-specific manner. Further functional studies are needed
 to clarify the role of HCG14 in the regulation of gene expression and 
to determine the molecular mechanisms by which the risk variant in HCG14
 contributes to celiac disease pathogenesis.
