About Celiac Disease Antibody Test | IgG & IgA in Downey
The Celiac Disease Antibody Test detects tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and gliadin antibodies of both IgG and IgA classes.
Tissue transglutaminase is an enzyme that modifies gluten peptides, and antibodies against it are a hallmark of celiac disease. Gliadin is a component of gluten, and antibodies against gliadin can also be elevated in affected individuals.
IgA deficiency is more common in people with celiac disease, so testing both IgG and IgA helps reduce the chance of a false-negative result. The combined panel provides a broader view of the immune response.
This test is a screening tool, not a diagnostic test. A positive result should be followed by a gastroenterology evaluation, which may include an intestinal biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.
