Celiac disease (CeD) is a common immune-mediated disease triggered by the ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. CeD is unique in that the trigger (gluten), necessary genes (HLA-DQ2 and DQ8), and the autoantigen (tissue transglutaminase) have been identified, allowing additional environmental co-factors, like the intestinal microbiota, to be studied through relevant in vivo models. Murine models for CeD have come a long way in the past decade and there are now in vitro and in vivo tools available that mimic certain aspects of clinical disease...

Celiac disease is a highly prevalent immune-mediated enteropathy that develops in genetically susceptible individuals expressing HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 after ingestion of gluten and results in decreased quality of life and increased morbidity. This pathology is triggered by immunogenic peptides generated from gliadins present in gluten, which act on the intestinal mucosa in a context of high intestinal permeability, activating the innate and adaptive response of the immune system. Several in vivo rodent models attempt to reproduce some phases of the intestinal inflammatory process that occurs in celiac disease...

Celiac disease (CeD) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by intestinal immune-derived injury that develops in response to dietary gluten consumption. Human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) complex haplotype typing is one of the main tests for CeD diagnosis, together with anti-endomysium and anti-transglutaminase autoantibody detection in blood and inflammation observation in the intestine, being the former mainly used for the initial discarding of the pathogenesis. Among the many types of HLA proteins, HLA-DQ2...

Some researchers have shown that genetics contribute to the incidence of IBS. However, no research has focused on the interaction between HLA-DQ and living habits in the pathogenesis of IBS. The present study explored the risk factors for IBS in college students of Guangxi Han nationality and explored the interaction between HLA-DQ and living habits on the pathogenesis of IBS. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk factors for IBS. Logistic interaction analysis and the Excel table made by Andersson were used to explore the interaction between genes and living habits in the context of IBS...

BACKGROUND: Coeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder strongly associated with Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) genes DQ2 and DQ8. These alleles are also associated with other autoimmune diseases including type 1 dia-betes (T1D) and these patients are consequently at a higher risk of developing CD. We examined the frequency of high-risk HLA alleles in a cohort of South African T1D pediatric patients. METHODS: A total of 22 pediatric participants were recruited at an endocrinology clinic in a public sector hospital in Johannesburg, South Africa...

AIM: The current study aims to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with celiac disease who were referred to the celiac clinic of Shahid Rahimi Hospital in Khorramabad, Iran, in 2020. BACKGROUND: Extraintestinal presentations of celiac disease are widespread and, if neglected, can be devastating. Osteoporosis, one of the extraintestinal manifestations of celiac disease, often remains undiagnosed until advanced stages and can impose a significant burden on patients with celiac and health systems...

The celiac disease (CD) diagnosis sometimes is challenging and diagnostic process cannot always follow a simple algorithm but it requires a close collaboration between histo-pathologists, clinicians, laboratory and genetic experts. The genetic predisposition for CD is related to HLA-DQ2 and/or DQ8 but other HLA haplotypes and non-HLA genes may be involved in genetic predisposition. In particular DQ7 may represent an additive and independent CD risk associated haplotype. We describe an unusual case of a female 42 year old with a previous diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma, who has a clinical presentation suggestive for CD with negativity for anti-transglutaminase and anti-endomysium antibodies and HLA-DQ7 positivity...

Background and Objectives : Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are considered at high-risk for developing celiac disease (CD). The purpose of our study was to determine the prevalence of CD among children who were followed in our unit for T1D using the latest ESPGHAN guidelines, and avoiding intestinal biopsies in some of the children. Materials and Methods : We performed a prospective monocentric study, which included 663 T1D children between June 2014 and June 2016. We considered CD according to serological (tissue transglutaminase (TGAs) and endomysium antibodies) results...

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease culminating in the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic cells. There is a need for the development of novel antigen-specific strategies to delay cell destruction, including combinatorial strategies that do not elicit systemic immunosuppression. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is expressed by immune cells, β-cells, and gut bacteria and is immunomodulatory. Glutamic-acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65), which catalyzes GABA from glutamate, is a T1D autoantigen...

Objective The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 in women diagnosed with lipedema. Methods Leukocyte histocompatibility antigen (HLA) tests of 95 women diagnosed with lipedema were analyzed using non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. The prevalence of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 was compared to the general population. Results The prevalence of HLA-DQ2+ was 47.4%, that of HLA-DQ8+ was 22.2%, the presence of any celiac disease associated HLA (HLA-DQ2+ or HLA-DQ8+) was 61.1%, both HLA (HLA-DQ2+ and HLA-DQ8+) was 7...

To contribute to and elucidate the participation of microbiota in celiac disease (CD) and type 1 diabetes (T1D) development, we evaluated the influence of HLA haplotypes, familial risk, and diet on the microbiota of schoolchildren. We conducted a cross-sectional study on 821 apparently healthy schoolchildren, genotyping HLA DQ2/DQ8, and registering familial risk. We analyzed the fecal microbiota using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and autoantibodies for CD or T1D by ELISA. After analyses, we created three groups: at-high-risk children (Group 1), at-high-risk children plus autoantibodies (Group 2), and nonrisk children (Group 3)...

Celiac disease is a global disease requiring genetic susceptibility and gluten exposure to trigger immune-mediated enteropathy. The effect of the degree of gluten-containing grain availability on celiac disease prevalence is unknown. Our objective was to compare country-based gluten availability to celiac prevalence using a systematic literature review. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus until May 2021. We included population-based serum screening with confirmatory testing (second serological study or small intestine biopsy) and excluded specific, high-risk, or referral populations...

Celiac disease (CD), despite its high morbidity, is an often-underdiagnosed autoimmune enteropathy. Using a modified version of the Brazilian questionnaire of the 2013 National Health Survey, we interviewed 604 Mennonites of Frisian/Flemish origin that have been isolated for 25 generations. A subgroup of 576 participants were screened for IgA autoantibodies in serum, and 391 participants were screened for HLA-DQ2.5/DQ8 subtypes. CD seroprevalence was 1:29 (3.48%, 95% CI = 2.16-5.27%) and biopsy-confirmed CD was 1:75 (1...

The etiology of type 1 diabetes foreshadows the pancreatic islet beta-cell autoimmune pathogenesis that heralds the clinical onset of type 1 diabetes. Standardized and harmonized tests of autoantibodies against insulin (IAA), glutamic acid decarboxylase (GADA), islet antigen-2 (IA-2A) and ZnT8 transporter (ZnT8A) allowed children to be followed from birth until the appearance of a first islet autoantibody. In the Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study, a multicenter (Finland, Germany, Sweden and the US) observational study, children were identified at birth for the type 1 diabetes high risk HLA haplogenotypes DQ2/DQ8, DQ2/DQ2, DQ8/DQ8 and DQ4/DQ8...

Celiac disease (CD) is a systemic autoimmune pathological condition caused by the intake of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Despite its wide prevalence, it remains an underdiagnosed disease since a large percentage of individuals who suffer from the condition do not have the classic symptoms described for the disease. We present the case of a 43-year-old man with severe iron deficiency and asthenia. We found high levels of anti-transglutaminase and anti-endomysium antibodies, a severe intraepithelial lymphocytosis, 3A Marsh-Oberhuber classification upon gastroscopy and the presence of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 heterodimers...

Immunogenicity of gliadin peptides in celiac disease (CD) is majorly determined by the pattern of molecular interactions with HLA-DQ and T-cell receptors (TCR). Investigation of the interactions between immune-dominant gliadin peptides, DQ protein, and TCR are warranted to unravel the basis of immunogenicity and variability contributed by the genetic polymorphisms. Homology modeling of HLA and TCR done using Swiss Model and iTASSER, respectively. Molecular interactions of eight common deamidated immune-dominant gliadin with HLA-DQ allotypes and specific TCR gene pairs were evaluated...

BACKGROUND: Type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a complex multifactorial disease with an autoimmune etiology and is thought to result from an interaction between genetic and non-genetic factors. Cytokines play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases due to their effector and regulatory functions in immune responses. Interleukin-4 (IL4) and Interleukin-13 (IL13) are anti-inflammatory cytokines and are considered as important mediators in pathology of the autoimmune diseases...

Immunological events that precede the development of villous atrophy in celiac disease (CeD) are still not completely understood. We aimed to explore CeD-associated antibody production (anti-native gliadin (AGA), anti-deamidated gliadin (DGP) and anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-tTG)) in infants at genetic risk for CeD from the Italian cohorts of the PREVENT-CD and Neocel projects, as well as the relationship between antibody production and systemic inflammation. HLA DQ2 and/or DQ8 infants from families with a CeD case were followed from birth...

INTRODUCTION: T cell reactivity against pancreatic autoantigens is considered one of the main contributors to the destruction of insulin-producing cells in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Over the years, peptide epitopes derived from these autoantigens have been described in NOD mice and in both HLA class II transgenic mice and humans. However, which ones are involved in the early onset or in the progressive phases of the disease is still unclear. METHODS: In this work we have investigated, in early-onset T1D pediatric patients and HLA-matched controls from Sardinia, the potential of preproinsulin (PPI) and glutamate decarboxylase 65 (GAD65)-derived peptides to induce spontaneous T cell proliferation responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)...

Celiac disease is strongly associated with HLA DQ, specifically with haplotypes. DRB1*03-DQA1*05:01/DQB1*02:01 (DQ2.5),DRB1*07-DQA1*02:01/DQB1*02:02 (DQ2.2), DRB1*11-DQA1*05:05/DQB1*03:01 (DQ7.5), and DRB1*04-DQA1*03:01/DQB1*03:02 (DQ8). The distribution of these risk haplotypes in patients with celiac disease is different in the geographical areas investigated. A high frequency of DRB1*07- DQA1*02:01/DQB1*02:02 (DQ2.2) and DRB1*11-DQA1*05:05/DQB1*03:01 (DQ7.5), has been described in Southern Europe. We analyzed 2102 confirmed CD cases with information on both DQB1* alelles and their distribution by geographical area in Spain...
