“…First, since there is genetic variability between c~-gliadins (16)(17)(18), these findings do not allow us to definitively exclude that the T cells actually recognize peptides from this region. Second, although diseaserelevant epitopes can be found in the NH2-terminal region of ol-gliadin (39,40), other regions in both cx-gliadin (39,41) and other gliadins have been suggested to be implicated in the disease (38,(42)(43)(44).…”

“…Likewise, human AGA can in principle cross‐react either with large molecules containing both specific linear or β‐turn motifs, or with peptides showing a low degree of sequence identity, provided they are rich in β‐turn moiety. This could explain why all coeliac sera react with gliadins, hordeins [18–20], secalins [21]and avenins [22]regardless whether the coeliac patient has consumed wheat, barley, rye or oats in the diet.…”

“…Notwithstanding difficulties in methods, controversy exists regarding the value of the specific class of AGA antibodies in the diagnosis of celiac disease. Some investigators advocate IgG class AGA(14‐17); whereas others favor IgA class AGA (18,19), and still others favored both(16,17,20). The usefulness of gliadin antibodies for diagnosis is open for criticism because their sensitivity and specificity varies so much from study to study(21‐26).…”
