Intern Med. 2006;45(18):1059-63. Epub 2006 Oct 16. PMID: 17043378 Just curious on this one...would love to know if they checked for antigliadin or other antibodiesin this person with RA, liver damage, and polymyositis. |

Cow's Milk / IgG
Not sure I understand all this, but I think it is supporitive of IgG allergy, right?
Changes in humoral responses to beta-lactoglobulin in tolerant patients suggest a particular role for IgG4 in delayed, non-IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy. PMID: 16925689 Sept 2006 Quote:

Results: Of the 63 siblings of 48 index cases studied, 15 tested positive for anti-tTG; of these 13 had celiac disease. Three tested borderline for anti-tTG; none of them had CD. Of the 45 anti-tTG-negative subjects, two agreed to undergo biopsy; one of these had features of CD. Overall, 14 of 63 (22%) siblings had CD, including 8 who had no symptoms suggestive of CD. Conclusions: CD is common among siblings of patients with CD in Punjab and may be asymptomatic. Prevalence of celiac disease among siblings of celiac disease patients. PMID: 17090839 Sept 2006 |

Myopathy and Gluten Sensitivity
Another from Hadjivassiliou, et al.
Myopathy associated with gluten sensitivity. PMID: 17143894 Dec 2006 Ataxia and peripheral neuropathy are the most common neurological manifestations of gluten sensitivity. Myopathy is a less common and poorly characterized additional neurological manifestation of gluten sensitivity. We present our experience with 13 patients who presented with symptoms and signs suggestive of a myopathy and in whom investigation led to the diagnosis of gluten sensitivity. Three of these patients had a neuropathy with or without ataxia in addition to the myopathy. The mean age at onset of the myopathic symptoms was 54 years. Ten patients had neurophysiological evidence of myopathy. Inflammatory myopathy was the most common finding on neuropathological examination. One patient had basophilic rimmed vacuoles suggestive of inclusion-body myositis. Six patients received immunosuppressive treatment in addition to starting on a gluten-free diet; five improved and one remained unchanged. Among seven patients not on immunosuppressive treatment, four showed clinical improvement of the myopathy with a gluten-free diet. The improvement was also associated with reduction or normalization of serum creatine kinase level. The myopathy progressed in one patient who refused the gluten-free diet. Myopathy may be another manifestation of gluten sensitivity and is likely to have an immune-mediated pathogenesis. A gluten-free diet may be a useful therapeutic intervention. Muscle Nerve, 2006.
