What is the Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgA test?
The Gliadin Antibody IgA test, also called the deamidated gliadin peptide antibodies test, helps to detect autoimmune conditions like celiac disease and analyze the effectiveness of a gluten-free diet. Celiac disease is an auto-immune disorder characterized by an abnormal response to gluten, a protein commonly found in wheat, barley, and rye.
When is the Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgA test recommended?
It is recommended:If you have symptoms such as malabsorption, chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, anemia, bloating, or a family history of celiac disease.
What does it measure?
The Gliadin Deamidated Peptide Antibody IgA test: The detection of antibodies to gliadin, one of the major protein components of gluten, is a sensitive assay useful in diagnosing celiac disease. However, 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. This recent work has revealed that gliadin-reactive antibodies from celiac patients bind to a very limited number of specific epitopes on the gliadin molecule.
