Gluten induces an intestinal cytokine response strongly dominated by interferon gamma in patients with celiac disease

EM Nilsen, FL Jahnsen, KEA Lundin, FE Johansen… - Gastroenterology, 1998 - Elsevier
Background & Aims: Celiac disease appears to be a T cell–mediated enteropathy induced
by gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Duodenal biopsy specimens from patients …

Gluten specific, HLA-DQ restricted T cells from coeliac mucosa produce cytokines with Th1 or Th0 profile dominated by interferon gamma.

EM Nilsen, KE Lundin, P Krajci, H Scott, LM Sollid… - Gut, 1995 - gut.bmj.com
Coeliac disease is precipitated in susceptible subjects by ingestion of wheat gluten or gluten

Interleukin 15 mediates epithelial changes in celiac disease

L Maiuri, C Ciacci, S Auricchio, V Brown, S Quaratino… - Gastroenterology, 2000 - Elsevier
Background & Aims: Villous atrophy and crypt proliferation are key epithelial features of

Gliadin specific, HLA DQ2‐restricted T cells are commonly found in small intestinal biopsies from coeliac disease patients, but not from controls

Ø Molberg, K Kett, H Scott, E Thorsby… - Scandinavian …, 1997 - Wiley Online Library
The authors have analysed gliadin specific, CD4+ T cells isolated from small intestinal

T cells from the small intestinal Mucosa of a DR4, DQ7/DR4. DQ8 celiac disease patient preferentially recognize gliadin when presented by DQ8

KEA Lundin, H Scott, O Fausa, E Thorsby, LM Sollid - Human immunology, 1994 - Elsevier

wheat gliadin. Most patients carry the HLA-DQ (α1∗ 0501, β1∗ 0201)(DQ2) heterodimer …

Interleukin 18 and associated markers of T helper cell type 1 activity in coeliac disease

VM Salvati, TT MacDonald, M Bajaj-Elliott, M Borrelli… - Gut, 2002 - gut.bmj.com
Background: Coeliac disease (CD) is caused by a T helper cell type 1 (Th1) response in the
