What is the Anti-Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgG test?
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system mistakenly thinks that gluten—a protein in wheat, barley, rye, and oats—is a foreign invader. Gliadin is a portion of the protein found in gluten.
When is the Anti-Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgG test recommended?
It is recommended:When someone has any signs and symptoms suggesting celiac disease, malnutrition, and/or malabsorption.Digestive signs and symptoms may include abdominal pain and distension, bloody stool, chronic diarrhea or constipation, flatulence, greasy, foul-smelling stools, and vomiting.
What does it measure?
The Anti Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgG test: The detection of antibodies to gliadin, one of the major protein components of gluten, is a sensitive assay useful in diagnosing celiac disease. Anyhow, gliadin antibodies may be found in individuals without celiac disease; thus, gliadin antibody assays are less specific than assays measuring antibodies to endomysium and transglutaminase. Gluten contains gliadin, which is being examined with this test. The foods containing gluten must be consumed before the test for accurate results. When the body is exposed to gliadin, it produces antibodies.
