http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/gi/celiac.html

Extractions: There are two important factors that contribute to the development of celiac disease: The ingestion of wheat The "Coeliac Affection" was first reported by Gee in 1888, however it was not until 1950 that wheat was proposed to be the cause of celiac disease. The evidence was based on the observation of a Dutch physician named Dicke who noted during World War II, a time when wheat grains were scarce in Holland, that children with celiac disease who had otherwise failed to thrive improved on a wheat-poor diet. Since then the large water-insoluble protein, gluten, present in wheat has been identified as the offending substance. Extraction of gluten with alcohol has further narrowed activity to smaller proline-rich proteins called gliadins which are capable of precipitating disease in previously asymptomatic celiacs. Analogous proteins exist in other grains such as rye, barley and oats and therefore these grains are also capable of exacerbating celiac disease. The specific peptide sequence of the gliadins responsible for triggering intestinal inflammation has not yet been identified. The genetic background of the individual Celiac disease runs in families. First degree relatives of individuals with celiac disease may or may not manifest symptoms of the disease. Predisposition to gluten sensitivity has been mapped to the major histocompatibility (MHC) D region on chromosome 6. The most important HLA haplotype is DQw2 which is often in linkage with DR3. Other important HLA haplotypes identified are DR7 and DPB 1, 3, 4.1 and 4.2. The sites on these MHC class 2 expressed proteins responsible for interacting with gliadin and host T cell receptors thereby sensitizing the intestine to gluten have not been identified.

http://www.komar.org/faq/celiac_disease/

Extractions: After a LOT of health issues, my son Dirk was (finally) diagnosed with Celiac Disease, which is an intolerance to wheat and gluten. As you can guess, there is a LOT I could write about our trials and tribulations with this (spending 4 days at Children's Hospital for "failure to thrive" is no fun), but fortunately most of that is behind us now. There is currently no cure for Celiac Disease, and you "treat" it by watching your diet very closely and avoiding ANY contact with wheat and gluten, which unfortunately are in a surprising number of foods/drinks. If you are interested in more information, check out the ODP dmoz.org category for Celiac which lists a variety of medical information sources. And if you want to make a financial contribution, one leading edge place is the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research. We had a second son Kyle, and when we started feeding him food, he lost some of his appetite and got crankier, so we had a blood test done, which didn't come back conclusive (medical science is sooo grey) but rather than have a biopsey (this is considered the "gold standard" test and was done on Dirk), we decided this was enough evidence that he probably has Celiac Disease also. And it's not much work to stay on a wheat/gluten-free diet for a second child - the only bummer is we don't keep any of this in the house, so Dad doesn't get buns with his hambugers and things like hot cheese sandwiches (or wheat things) never tasted so good when you haven't had 'em for 6 months! ;-)

Patient Information A patient information handout on celiac disease, written by the author of this article, is provided on page 1039. C eliac disease is a gluten enteropathy occurring in both children and adults. The condition is characterized by a sensitivity to gluten that results in inflammation and atrophy of the mucosa of the small intestine. Clinical manifestations include malabsorption with symptoms of diarrhea, steatorrhea, and nutritional and vitamin deficiencies. Secondary immunologic illnesses, such as atopic dermatitis, dermatitis herpetiformis, alopecia and aphthous ulcers, may be the primary presentation. Prevalence The magnitude of the prevalence of celiac disease has only recently been recognized. A large multicenter study, promoted by the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (ESPGAN) and involving 36 centers from 22 countries, has provided important information on the incidence of celiac disease. The average incidence was found to be one case in every 1,000 live births, with a range from one in 250 to one in 4,000. When the age of diagnosis was included in the incidence density of celiac disease, the predicted rate was one case in every 300 newborns. Among blood donors, the prevalence of asymptomatic celiac disease was found to be as high as one in 266.

A lthough celiac disease was formally described late in the 19th century, treatment remained empiric until the middle of the 20th century when patients were noted to improve dramatically after wheat was removed from their diet. With the development of small-bowel biopsy techniques, the small intestine was identified as the target organ. Disease causality was established when the characteristic features of villous flat tening, crypt hyperplasia, and increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (Figure 1) were shown to normalize after the institution of a gluten-free diet.
