Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To investigate in vivo AN-PEP activity, small intestinal biopsy material will be analysed for the following: * Histopathological changes according to the Modified Marsh criteria. * The presence and activity of gluten reactive T cells isolated from biopsies. * The immunophenotype of lymphocytes (IEL and LPL) isolated from biopsies. To investigate in vivo AN-PEP activity, peripheral blood samples will be analysed for the following: * The presence and activity of gluten reactive T cells. * The presence of coeliac disease specific antibodies (EMA, tTGA).
