Dr. Chaitan Khosla's group, from Stanford University and the Celiac Sprue 
Research Foundation, has come up with a two-enzyme cocktail that has the 
potential of rapidly breaking down gluten to make it safe for celiacs, 
making the concept of a "pill" for celiacs more feasible.

"EP-B2 was tested in combination with another well-characterized enzyme 
called PEP that breaks gluten protein after proline residues. At very high 
gluten loads, where neither PEP nor EP-B2 alone could detoxify gluten 
quickly enough to prevent inflammation, a PEP and EP-B2 combination 
completely abolished gluten immunotoxicity within ten minutes under 
simulated gastric and duodenal conditions."
