Digestive system organs Celiac disease - sprue Definition Celiac disease is an inherited, autoimmune disease. The lining of the small intestine is damaged in response to ingestion of gluten and other proteins found in wheat, barley, rye, possibly oats, and their derivatives. The intestines contain projections (called villi) that normally absorb nutrients. In undiagnosed or untreated celiac disease, these villi become flattened and the ability to absorb nutrients properly is altered. As a result, several other organ systems may also be affected. The disease can first develop at any point in life from infancy to late adulthood. Alternative Names Sprue; Nontropical sprue; Gluten intolerance; Gluten-sensitive enteropathy

Associated persons: Samuel Jones Gee Christian Archibald Herter Johann Otto Leonhard Heubner Thorvald Einar Hess Thaysen Description: A gastrointestinal disease resulting from defective fat and calcium absorption, with deficient capacity for metabolising the gluten fraction gliadin. Main symptoms are intestinal infantilism with abdominal distension, fatty diarrhoea, anorexia, extreme wasting, fatigue, and stunting of growth sometimes to the point of dwarfism. Intake of gluten-free food improves the condition markedly. Most commonly seen in children, with onset between 6 and 9 months, but also occurs in adults. Autosomal dominant inheritance with incomplete penetrance has been suggested.

Gluten Induced Enteropathy, Nontropical Sprue or Celiac Disease It is thought that Gluten Induced Enteropathy is caused by an inborn error of metabolism or immunologic sensitivity to gliadin by the small intestines. A patient may show only one or more of the following symptoms: frequent, foul-smelling stools that are pale and foamy; easy fatigue; anemia; pallor; weight loss; vomiting; cramps; irritability; a distended abdomen and/or constipation. The mucosa of the jejunum of the untreated patient with Celiac Disease or gluten sensitive enteropathy has a characteristic appearance which is described as flat. The only definitive diagnostic tool for celiac disease at the present time is a small bowel biopsy, before the patient starts on a gluten free diet. Antigliadin and AntiEndomysial Antibody blood screening tests are being done in some centers in Canada. These blood screening tests are still in the testing stages, and so while helpful in screening family members of celiacs, they currently cannot be used for a final diagnosis. Once the offending protein gluten (gliadin fraction) has been removed from the diet, the individual will begin to feel better very quickly, often within days. In time the jejunal mucosa will return to normal or near normal.

Celiac disease affects as many as 1 of 300 people in Italy and southwestern Ireland, yet it is extremely rare in Africa, Japan, and China. There is a genetic component; about 10% of people with celiac disease have a close relative with the disease. In this disease, gluten, a protein found in wheat and, to a lesser extent, barley, rye, and oats, is believed to stimulate the production of certain antibodies. These antibodies damage the inner lining of the small intestine, resulting in flattening of the villi. The resulting smooth surface leads to malabsorption of nutrients. However, the small intestine's normal brushlike surface and function are restored when the person stops eating foods containing gluten.

Z Celiac disease - sprue Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Alternative Names: Sprue; Nontropical sprue; Gluten intolerance; Gluten-sensitive enteropathy Treatment: A life-long gluten-free diet is required. This allows the intestinal villi to heal. Foods, beverages, and medications which contain wheat, barley, rye, and possibly oats are eliminated completely. You must read food and medication labels carefully to look for "hidden" sources of these grains and their derivatives. Since wheat and barley grains are found abundantly in the American diet, the treatment is challenging but achievable with education and planning. You should NOT begin the gluten-free diet before a diagnosis is made. Doing so will alter future testing for the disease. Vitamin and mineral supplements may be prescribed to correct nutritional deficiencies. Occasionally, corticosteroids (such as prednisone) may also be prescribed for short-term use or if you have refractory sprue. Following a well-balanced, gluten-free diet is generally the only treatment required for achieving wellness and eliminating symptoms.

59. Tropical Medicine Central Resource There are still some who consider tropical sprue, nontropical sprue and celiac disease to be varied manifestations of the same basic disorder. http://tmcr.usuhs.mil/tmcr/chapter16/pathology.htm

Etiology and Pathology The various etiological postulates and their "pros" and "cons" are summarized in Table 16.1. In tropical sprue there is alteration of the epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus, but the greatest changes occur in the jejunum. An atrophic process predominates in the jejunal and ileal mucosa and, in decreasing order of severity, the tongue, buccal mucosa, stomach and colon are affected. In the jejunum, the normal finger-like villous processes become shortened and broadened, producing a leaf-like or ridge-like appearance, indicating partial villous atrophy (unlike celiac disease which causes total villous atrophy).

Table 16.1 - Etiological postulates regarding tropical sprue, and their pros and cons In favor Against Infection Sprue is epidemic and spreads in certain geographic locations, especially during the hot, dry season preceding the rainy season. Affected people in the nontropics have a history of having lived in or passed through endemic areas. Fever is often present at the onset of the disease. There is an increase in the toxins of gram-negative bacterial organisms and an occasional increase in bacterial colony counts. Acute enteritis may precipitate sprue. There is an increase in inflammatory cells in the lamina propria with variable edema. The clinical response to tetracycline is good, and the disease can be cured, with restoration of the normal histology of the small bowel mucosa. Stool and blood cultures have not shown any organism. No antigen or antibody has been found. Electron microscopy has identified no virus. Volunteers who ingested algae demonstrated different clinical and biochemical findings. Allergy There is an increase in eosinophils in the lamina propria. There is an increased incidence and susceptibility following pregnancy and/or bacillary dysentery. There is a close resemblance of the clinical, biochemical, radiological, and histological presentation to the nontropical sprue of infants, to celiac disease, and to the idiopathic steatorrhea of adults caused by gluten sensitivity.
