Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVETo determine whether in vitro induction of endomysial antibodies is an in vitro marker of coeliac toxicity. DESIGNTo determine whether in vitro endomysial antibodies induced by gliadin incubation correlate with histological damage induced by in vitro gliadin challenge. METHODS RESULTS CONCLUSIONSIn vitro, endomysial antibody induction cannot be used as a marker of coeliac toxicity. Endomysial antibodies are not necessary for generating the histological lesion of coeliac disease.
