<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Researchers have found a durum wheat peptide capable of altering the Th1 gluten-intolerant T cell response to Th2 gluten-tolerant T cell response in T cell cultures derived from celiac disease children. Durum wheat peptides could potentially treat celiac disease by causing celiac disease associated T cells to react tolerantly to gluten. ---------- American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol 87, No 2, 415-423, Feb 2008 A 10-residue peptide from durum wheat promotes a shift from a Th1- type response toward a Th2-type response in celiac disease Marco Silano, Rita Di Benedetto, Francesca Maialetti, Alessandro De Vincenzi, Roberta Calcaterra, Antonello Trecca and Massimo De Vincenzi http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/abstract/87/2/415 . * * * *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the Celiac List * Archives are at: Http://Listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?LIST=CELIAC
