Coeliac disease is an autoimmune enteropathy triggered by the ingestion of gluten-containing cereals, such as wheat, rye and barley. It is estimated to occur in one per cent of people of European ancestry, and in 0.3% of black Africans.

Increased awareness of non-classical presentations and more reliable screening tests have led to higher detection rates for coeliac disease in elderly adults. Clinical presentations are influenced largely by the long-standing course of the subclinical disease before diagnosis.

Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the small intestine, and is caused by the ingestion of gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. Prevalence in the general population ranges from 0·5% to 2%, with an average of about 1%.

Coeliac disease in The Netherlands [PDF]
The prevalence of adult coeliac disease in The Netherlands was studied in the Dutch Coeliac Disease Society and in blood donors but not in the general population. We therefore studied the prevalence of recognized and unrecognized coeliac disease in a large cohort, representative of the adult Dutch general population.

Frequency of Gluten-Reactive T Cells in Active Celiac Lesions Estimated by Direct Cell Cloning
Chronic inflammation of the small intestine in celiac disease is driven by activation of CD4+ T cells that recognize gluten peptides presented by disease-associated HLA-DQ molecules.

Gluten‐specific CD4+ T cells being drivers of celiac disease (CeD) are obvious targets for immunotherapy. Little is known about how cell markers harnessed for T‐cell‐directed therapy can change with time and upon activation in CeD and other autoimmune ...

The pathogenic immune response in celiac disease (CeD) is orchestrated by phenotypically distinct CD4+ T cells that recognize gluten epitopes in the context of disease‐associated HLA‐DQ allotypes.

Gluten-specific CD4+ T cells are drivers of celiac disease (CeD). Previous studies of gluten-specific T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoires have found public TCRs shared across multiple individuals, biased usage of particular V-genes and conserved CDR3 ...
