Diagnostic and Research Aspects of Small Intestinal Disaccharidases in Coeliac Disease
Disaccharidases (DS) are brush border enzymes embedded in the microvillous membrane of small intestinal enterocytes. In untreated coeliac disease (CD), a general decrease of DS activities is seen. This manuscript reviews different aspects of DS activities in CD: their utility in the diagnosis and their application to in vitro toxicity testing. The latter has never been established in CD researc...
متن کاملSmall intestinal ulceration: diagnostic difficulties in relation to coeliac disease.
Seven cases of ulceration of the small intestine are described and the relationship to coeliac disease is discussed. Evidence for coeliac disease is found in all cases but is less strong in some than in others, and coeliac disease was proved in only two cases. The ulcers were examined histologically in each case and in three cases were associated with malignant histiocytosis but the others show...
متن کاملSmall intestinal plasma cells in coeliac disease.
Using a modified immunoperoxidase technique to achieve optimum staining and reproducible counts of plasma cells in paraffin embedded tissue, IgA, IgM, IgE, and IgG plasma cells were studied in small bowel biopsies from 20 controls, 23 untreated coeliac patients, 19 treated coeliac patients, and seven patients with Crohn's disease not involving duodenum or jejunum. In controls the ratio of the m...
متن کاملSmall intestinal biopsy in childhood coeliac disease.
Small intestinal biopsies from children with treated and untreated coeliac disease have been analysed morphometrically and compared with controls. Two methods have been used; one, described by Dunnill and Whitehead (1972) provides indices of surface-tovolume ratio and of mucosal volume. The other, described by Meinhard, Wadbrook and Risdon (1965), involves tracing the microscopic image of the b...
متن کاملDifferential IL-13 Production by Small Intestinal Leukocytes in Active Coeliac Disease versus Refractory Coeliac Disease
A small fraction of coeliac disease (CD) patients have persistent villous atrophy despite strict adherence to a gluten-free diet. Some of these refractory CD (RCD) patients develop a clonal expansion of lymphocytes with an aberrant phenotype, referred to as RCD type II (RCDII). Pathogenesis of active CD (ACD) has been shown to be related to gluten-specific immunity whereas the disease is no lon...
