The Gluten Sensitivity and Celiac Diagnostic Panel panel contains 6 tests with 8 biomarkers.

The Gluten Sensitivity and Celiac Diagnostic Panel is designed to help doctors figure out if someone has problems with gluten, which is found in foods like bread and pasta.

This panel includes several tests that each have a special job in understanding if you have gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, which is a more serious condition.

Here's what each test does and how it helps you:

  1. Gluten (f79) IgE

    • What it does: This test checks for specific IgE antibodies that react when you eat gluten. IgE antibodies are involved when the body has an allergic reaction.
    • How it helps you: If this test is positive, it means your body might be reacting badly to gluten as if it's an allergen. Knowing this can help you avoid gluten to prevent allergic reactions.

  2. IgE

    • What it does: This test measures the total amount of IgE antibodies in your blood.
    • How it helps you: It gives a general idea of whether you're likely to have any allergies, not just to gluten but to other things too.

  3. Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Antibodies (IgG, IgA)

    • What it does: Looks for antibodies against an enzyme in your body that gets involved when you eat gluten.
    • How it helps you: This is a key test for finding out if you have celiac disease. High levels of these antibodies often mean celiac disease is present.

  4. Endomysial Antibody Scr (IgA) W/Refl To Titer

    • What it does: Detects antibodies that attack parts of your own tissues when gluten is in your diet.
    • How it helps you: This test is very good at confirming if you have celiac disease, especially if the tTG test is also positive.

  5. Gliadin (Deamidated Peptide) Antibody (IgG, IgA)

    • What it does: Tests for antibodies to specific pieces of gluten that change during digestion.
    • How it helps you: Helps to see if gluten is causing an immune response, useful for diagnosing celiac disease and in cases where other test results aren't clear.

  6. Immunoglobulin A (IgA)

    • What it does: Measures the amount of IgA in your blood, a type of antibody that protects against infections but can be involved in autoimmune responses.
    • How it helps you: This test is important to check because some people have low levels of IgA, which can make other tests for celiac disease inaccurate.

 

This diagnostic panel is very helpful for figuring out if you have issues with gluten, such as gluten sensitivity or celiac disease.

Each test gives important information that can help your doctor recommend the best treatment or diet changes, so you feel better and avoid serious health problems in the future.
