Advances in coeliac disease

Abstract: Our understanding of the basic and clinical aspects of coeliac disease increases. Coeliac disease stands out as a major health problem of almost global occurrence. Case finding, distinguishing coeliac disease from other gluten-sensitive conditions, better care and balanced use of resources are the current challenges.

“…Celiac disease is an inflammatory enteropathy caused by gluten from wheat and other cereals in genetically predisposed individuals. 103 A link between the HSP70-2 gene and celiac disease was first reported in 1993. 104 Then, the C allele of the HSP70-1 gene was reported to be higher in Spanish celiac patients and was therefore considered an additional factor in celiac disease susceptibility.…”

“…Untreated CD is characterized by autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase (TG2), an (intestinal) enzyme that binds and modifies gluten peptides, resulting in their improved binding to HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8, the major genetic predisposition for CD, followed by activation and expansion of destructive Th1 T cells in the gut (1). Apart from the established roles of gluten, HLA-DQ2/HLA-DQ8, and TG2, environmental factors such as viral and microbial infections and perhaps feeding practices have also been suggested to contribute to CD pathogenesis (2)(3)(4)(5)(6).…”

“…Lundin at al., recently designed current challenges in celiac disease as necessity of better case finding, distinguishing celiac disease from other gluten-sensitive conditions, better care and balanced use of resources [35]. Researchers have already described susceptibility loci and a number of genes associated with celiac disease with a well-known close association with the HLA-DQ2 and/or DQ8 genes.…”
