From celiac disease to coccidia infection and vice‐versa: The polyQ peptide CXCR3‐interaction axis

BioEssays, Volume 43, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021
Coccidian parasites trigger zonulin upregulation and release via the binding of the parasite matching gliadin polyQ sequences to the CXCR‐type chemokine, thus representing an underappreciated mechanism of coccidial infection. The high sequence similarity between the PolyQs of gliadin and coccidia suggests that in humans, a coccidiosis episode may be an
