摘要 |
A diagnostic test for celiac disease is disclosed. In particular, the invention relates to a method of diagnosing celiac disease by detecting activated, gut-bound CD8+ alpha-beta T lymphocytes and gamma-delta T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of a subject who has consumed gluten for one to three days. This diagnostic test has a number of advantages over current tests for celiac test, including that the test is noninvasive, relatively inexpensive, and requires voluntary gluten ingestion over a short period of time. |
