    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Does IgA tTG Predict Mucosal Recovery in Children with Celiac Disease on a Gluten Free Diet?
    Celiac.com 01/23/2017 - It makes some kind of sense that kids with celiac disease who follow a gluten-free diet will recover, their guts will normalize, and their levels of IgA tissue transglutaminase antibodies would drop to reflect this change; whereas high antibodies likely mean no recovery, right? But is that true? Is there really a correlation on any level?
    To test this idea, a team of researchers recently set out to document the rate of mucosal recovery in kids with celiac disease on a gluten-free diet. They also wanted to figure out whether IgA tissue transglutaminase (tTG) correlates with mucosal damage at the time of a repeat endoscopy with duodenal biopsy.
    The research team included Maureen M. Leonard, Dascha C. Weir, Maya DeGroote, Paul D. Mitchell, Prashant Singh, Jocelyn...

    Full Gut Recovery from Celiac Disease Can Take Up to Two Years
    Celiac.com 03/14/2017 - Recent studies of adult celiacs have suggested that complete, not just partial, mucosal recovery and healing is possible, but, in many cases, may take longer than is currently understood.
    Recently Dr. Hugh James Freeman of the Department of Medicine, Gastroenterology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada, conducted a study to assess healing time in celiac patients. In this study, 182 patients (60 males, 122 females) referred for evaluation of symptoms, including diarrhea and weight loss, were selected only if initial biopsies showed characteristic inflammatory changes with severe architectural disturbance.
    All patients were treated with a strict gluten-free diet, and diet compliance was regularly monitored. Up to 90% or more of patients showed...

    Chronic Celiac Inflammation Permanently Changes Tissue-Resident Immunity
    Celiac.com 03/04/2019 - Tissue-resident lymphocytes play a key role in immune surveillance, but there’s not much data on how these cells respond to chronic inflammation. A team of researchers recently set out to assess how well tissue-resident lymphocytes respond to chronic inflammation. The research team included Toufic Mayassi; Kristin Ladell; Herman Gudjonson; Jamie Rossjohn; David A. Price; and Bana Jabri.
    In celiac disease, the team found that gluten-induced inflammation substantially reduced levels of naturally occurring Vγ4 +/Vδ1 + intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) with innate cytolytic properties and specificity for the butyrophilin-like (BTNL) molecules BTNL3/BTNL8. 
    Creation of a new niche with reduced expression of BTNL8 and loss of Vγ4 +/Vδ1 + IELs occurred togethe...

    Study Reveals That Even Careful Gluten-Free Dieters Are Eating Gluten Regularly
    Celiac.com 01/07/2020 - Everyone with celiac disease needs to follow a gluten-free diet. However, celiac patients on a gluten-free diet often suffer from villous atrophy, which might point to regular accidental gluten ingestion.
    A group of international researchers called the Doggie Bag Study group, has found that gluten ingestion is common even among those who make a concerted effort to avoid gluten. The study group included Jocelyn A. Silvester, Isabel Comino. Ciarán P. Kelly, Carolina Sousa, and Donald R. Duerksen.
    The group's analysis found that antibody tests on celiac patients who report good or excellent gluten-free dietary practices show that most patients had ingested measurable amounts of gluten in the 10-days before biopsy. These findings indicate that most people w...
