Gluten Free/Gluten-Load Trial

Gluten intolerance, gluten enteropathy, and coeliac disease.

Randomised clinical trial: gluten may cause depression in subjects with non-coeliac gluten sensitivity - an exploratory clinical study.

BACKGROUND Current evidence suggests that many patients with self-reported non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) retain gastrointestinal symptoms on a gluten-free diet (GFD) but continue to restrict gluten as they report 'feeling better'. AIM To investigate the notion that a major effect of gluten in those with NCGS is on mental state and not necessarily on gastrointestinal symptoms. METHOD...

Gluten - Not a Friendly Protein

Introduction: Gluten is a protein found in grains.  Research has shown that the gluten that is in grains of wheat, barley, rye, and oats (to a lesser degree) is toxic to many individuals.  While gluten is essential for the make-up of these 4 grains, our bodies do not need it. Is it healthful?  The protein in today’s wheat is poorly digested and can be harmful.  An estimated 95% of prepared fo...

P98 - Gluten allergy

Results Nine children with GA are followed at our Pediatric Allergy Clinic, with ages ranging from 1-14 years and 8 are boys. Early presentation occurred between 5 and 9 months of age: 6 with cutaneous manifestations, 2 with gastrointestinal manifestations and 1 with anaphylaxis. The route of sensitization was cutaneous (with oat cream) and by food ingestion. Serum specific IgE to gluten ranged...

A curated gluten protein sequence database to support development of proteomics methods for determination of gluten in gluten-free foods

The unique physiochemical properties of wheat gluten enable a diverse range of food products to be manufactured. However, gluten triggers coeliac disease, a condition which is treated using a gluten-free diet. Analytical methods are required to confirm if foods are gluten-free, but current immunoassay-based methods can unreliable and proteomic methods offer an alternative but require comprehens...
