The first description of dental enamel defects in celiac disease (CD) dates back to 1990 [1]. Since then several authors have reported an association between oral pathology and CD. In recent years, two literature reviews have shown recurrent aphthous stomatitis (mouth ulcers) and dental enamel defects in a wide range of 4-41% and 10-96% of patients with CD [2,3]. In 2012 were published the new ...

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is a leading cereal in the arid and semi-arid regions and ranks fifth in importance among the world’s grain crops. Given its importance as a staple food crop, a livestock feed crop and potentially a bioenergy crop, there is a constant need for its genetic improvement and an important step in this regard is the evaluation of genetic diversity in sorghum. In th...

Background Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten and related prolamines, which can cause a variety of symptoms complications if left untreated. Despite being common lifelong disorder, it often goes undiagnosed for long time, leading to negative impacts on patients' health quality life. The diagnosis celiac requires the presence celiac-specific autoantibodies distinctive h...

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, caused by a permanent intolerance to gluten contained in wheat and to similar prolamines present in barley and rye. It is a common disease as its prevalence, in Caucasian populations, is about 1%. There are several patterns of clinical presentation: typical (with gastrointestinal symptoms), atypical (extraintestinal manifestations), and silent forms, al...

The magnitude of the correction in the fifth column of Table III may be open to some doubt, as are all corrections of such a character, and the significance of the above experiment in the author's mind lies not so much in the actual magnitude of the values given in the last column of this table as in their comparative magnitudes. For this reason the entire experiment reported was performed in a...

Cereal Chern. 87(6):524-531 Dent com (Zea mays L.) and sorghum (Sorghum hieolor L. Moench) sample sets representative of commonly grown hybrids and diverse physical attributes were analyzed for alkaline cooking performance. The influence of kernel characteristics including hardness, density, starch properties (thermal. pasting, and crystallinity). starch content. protein content. and prolamin c...

After reviewing the evidence for interact ion in breadmaking of lipids with proteins and carbohydrates, theories on the shortening response are discussed. Recent studies show that the response cannot be explained entirely on the basis of physical phenomena. Both overall breadmaking quality (presumably related to gluten and its components) and the presence of wheat flour lipids are impor tant in...

We have isolated full-length cDNA clones that encode oat (Avena sativa) seed storage globulin mRNAs from a cDNA library in the expression vector lambda gtll. The longest of these clones, pOG2, has an 1840-base pair insert that encodes a complete precursor subunit with a signal peptide of 24 amino acids followed by an acidic polypeptide of 293 amino acids and a basic polypeptide of 201 amino aci...
