  2. Anti-transglutaminase antibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-transglutaminase...

    The endomysium contains a form of transglutaminase called "tissue transglutaminase" or "tTG" for short, and antibodies that bind to this form of transglutaminase are called endomysial autoantibodies (EmA). [6] The antiendomysial antibody test is a histological assay for patient serum binding to esophageal tissue from primate.

  3. Tissue transglutaminase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_transglutaminase

    Anti-transglutaminase antibodies result in a form of gluten sensitivity in which a cellular response to Triticeae glutens that are crosslinked to tTG are able to stimulate transglutaminase specific B-cell responses that eventually result in the production of anti-transglutaminase antibodies IgA and IgG.

  4. Gluten immunochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluten_immunochemistry

    Antibody recognition of gluten is complex. Direct binding to gluten such as anti-gliadin antibodies has an ambiguous pathogenesis in coeliac disease. The crosslinking of gliadin with tissue transglutaminase leads to the production of anti-transglutaminase antibodies, but this is mediated through T-cell recognition of gliadin.

  5. Gluten-related disorders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluten-related_disorders

    Persons suspected of having celiac disease may undergo serological testing for IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (abbreviated anti-tTG antibodies or anti-TG2 antibodies) and anti-endomysial antibodies (abbreviated EMA) provided the IgA-level is high, and if IgA is low, testing for certain IgG antibodies; in case of positive ...

  6. Anti-gliadin antibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-gliadin_antibodies

    The IgG antibody is similar to AGA IgA, but is found at higher levels in patients with the IgA-less phenotype. It is also associated with coeliac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. [5] [6] [7] Anti-gliadin antibodies are frequently found with anti-transglutaminase antibodies.

  7. Some instance of arthritis with small bowel villous atrophy have been found to resolve on gluten free diet, [93] and anti-connective tissue antibodies have been found in increased levels in coeliac disease. [94] Anti-rheumatoid factor antibodies are also increased. [95]

  8. Non-celiac gluten sensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-celiac_gluten_sensitivity

    [7] [22] NCGS and celiac disease cannot be separated in diagnosis because many gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal symptoms are similar in both diseases, [22] [29] [30] and there are people with celiac disease having negative serology (absence of specific celiac disease antibodies in serum) or without villus atrophy.

  9. Dermatitis herpetiformis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatitis_herpetiformis

    Additionally, the concomitant diagnosis of Celiac disease can be made without the need for a small-intenstinal biopsy if an individual has biopsy-confirmed dermatitis herpetiformis as well as supporting serologic studies (elevated levels of IgA tissue transglutaminase antibodies, IgA epidermal transglutaminase antibodies, or IgA endomysial ...
