Hla types in celiac disease patients not carrying the DQA1*05-DQB1*02 (DQ2) heterodimer: results from the european genetics cluster on celiac disease
Kati Karell,A.S. Louka,S J Moodie,Henry Ascher,F. Clot,Luigi Greco,Paul J. Ciclitira,Ludvig M. Sollid,Jukka Partanen +8 more
TL;DR: The results underline the primary importance of HLA-DQ alleles in susceptibility to celiac disease, and the extreme rarity of celiac patients carrying neither the D Q2 or DQ8 heterodimers nor one half of the DQ2 heterodimer alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Celiac disease risk in the USA: high prevalence of antiendomysium antibodies in healthy blood donors.
Tarcisio Not,Karoly Horvath,Ivor D. Hill,Jukka Partanen,A. Hammed,Giuseppe Magazzù,Alessio Fasano +6 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of increased AEA levels in healthy blood donors in the USA is 1:250, similar to that reported in countries in Europe, where subsequent small-intestinal biopsies have confirmed CD in all those with AEA positivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Celiac disease in patients with severe liver disease: Gluten-free diet may reverse hepatic failure
Katri Kaukinen,Leena Halme,Pekka Collin,Martti Färkkilä,Markku Mäki,Paula Vehmanen,Jukka Partanen,Krister Höckerstedt +7 more
TL;DR: The possible presence of celiac disease should be investigated in patients with severe liver disease, and dietary treatment may prevent progression to hepatic failure, even in cases in which liver transplantation is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosing Mild Enteropathy Celiac Disease: A Randomized, Controlled Clinical Study
Kalle Kurppa,Pekka Collin,Mervi Viljamaa,Katri Haimila,Päivi Saavalainen,Jukka Partanen,Kaija Laurila,Heini Huhtala,Kaija Paasikivi,Markku Mäki,Katri Kaukinen +10 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic criteria for celiac disease need re-evaluation: endomysial antibody positivity without atrophy belongs to the spectrum of genetic gluten intolerance, and warrants dietary treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secretor genotype (FUT2 gene) is strongly associated with the composition of Bifidobacteria in the human intestine.
Pirjo Wacklin,Harri Mäkivuokko,Noora Alakulppi,Janne Nikkilä,Heli Tenkanen,Jarkko Räbinä,Jukka Partanen,Kari Aranko,Jaana Mättö +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the diversity and composition of the human bifidobacterial population is strongly associated with the histo-blood group ABH secretor/non-secretor status, which consequently appears to be one of the host genetic determinants for the composition ofThe intestinal microbiota.
