Prolamine is an alcoholic solution of zein, with the property of polymerizing within 15 minutes in a humid medium. Such a substance has been injected in the pancreatic duct of 10 pigs with a microsurgical technique, causing complete occlusion. The prolamine gel produces a progressive fibrosclerosis
The authors examined tissues obtained by biopsy, pancreatectomy, and autopsy from 100 pancreas grafts to determine the cause of dysfunction or failure of the graft. Immunohistologic examination of 42 tissues to determine the mononuclear cell phenotypes and Class I and II antigen expression was
Celiac disease is an inflammatory disorder of the small intestine induced by intake of wheat gluten and other prolamines in genetically susceptible individuals. This disease is manifested by an increased number of intraepithelial and lamina propria lymphocytes, villous atrophy, tissue remodeling and
Intolerance of gluten, resposible for Coeliac disease, is essentially shown by an auto-immune enteropathy, even if the cutaneous manifestation (herpetiform dermatitis) and perhaps certain neurological signs (cerebral syndrome, peripheral neuropathy) may be independent as well as associated with the
OBJECTIVE
The aminoterminal procollagen type-III-peptide, which can be released during collagen type III deposition, has been suggested as a serum marker of fibrogenesis in patients with chronic liver disease. However, longitudinal studies correlating procollagen type-III-peptide concentrations in
In celiac disease (CD) we have the prototype of an immune mediated response dominated by the activation of the adaptive immune system and in particular of CD4+ HLA class II restricted T cells. Various seminal studies have established the precise mechanism of how antigen (prolamine) specific
For decades, the pathogenesis of a variety of human diseases has been attributed to increased intestinal paracellular permeability even though scientific evidence supporting this hypothesis has been tenuous. Nevertheless, during the past decade, there have been a growing number of publications
OBJECTIVE
The resistance of prolamines to digestive enzymes is thought to be a key contributor to the pathogenesis of celiac disease by promoting the intestinal entrance of peptides able to trigger inflammation in at-risk individuals. Oral administration of a bacterial prolyl-endopeptidase (PEP)
