Devono sempre essere confermati. I test per la rilevazione di anticorpi IgG o IgA antigliadina non devono essere utilizzati per la diagnosi di malattia celiaca. I test che misurano gli anticorpi sierici contro peptidi deamidati della gliadina non aggiungono alcuna precisione meglio degli Anti-TGASI 4 Correlazione tra sierologia e istologia Free Powerpoint Templates • La severità della lesione istologica correla con i valori di IgA anti-tTG • La specificità degli anticorpi IgA anti-tTG per la diagnosi della celiachia è del 93% (92-95); ed è più alta nel caso degli EMA (96%; 94-98). • In queste circostanze la biopsia è ancora necessaria? 5 Il Network MEDICEL – Mediterranean Celiac Free Powerpoint Templates 6 Tutto si basa sulla relazione tra livello di TTGASI e Free Powerpoint Templates Danno Istologico (Marsh stage) - Italia 7 Country Spearman Rho Spain -0.09 Free Powerpoint Templates France 0.062 Correlation between tTG-log and Marsh stage Ma questa base di sicurezza non c’è dovunque ! p value 0.5 0.6 Naples 0.53 0.0001 Sicily 0.37 0.008 Malta 0.18 0.9 Slovenia 0.13 0.33 Croatia -0.07 0.6 Bosnia 0.09 0.58 Albania 0.42 0.1 Montenegro 0.25 0.079 Greece 0.007 0.9 Turkey 0.201 0.16 Egypt 0.17 0.3 Tunisia 0.194 0.17 Algeria -0.141 0.32 Morocco 0.33 0.018 8 Carmela è …..

KIAA1109/Tenr/IL2/ IL21 This region is involved in differentiation of naïve human CD4+ T cells into Th17 cells, which produce a variety of cytokines including IL-17A, IL17F, IL-21 and IL-22. Genetic alterations in the 4q27 locus could results in nonfunctional IL-21 and hence lack of IL-17A or vice versa. 19 Free Powerpoint Templates 0,2 0 0,04 20 Rischio a posteriori per classe HLA Free Powerpoint Templates sommando gli alleli di rischio “A” 0.35 •DQ2 omozigote: 21% 30% 0.30 •DQ2 in trans: 17% 26% 0.25 •DQ2 eterozigote: 6% 17% DQ22 0.20 Score DQ2T 0.15 DQ2 •DQ8: 5% 13% •DQ negativi: 0.6% 5% DQ8 0.10 DQ-- 0.05 0.00 Percentuali di rischio in base all’HLA rispetto all’aggiunta degli alleli di rischio per i tre SNP associati. 2.00 3.00 3.00 3.50 3.75 4.00 4.25 4.50 4.75 5.00 5.50 6.00 N° di alleli di rischio “A” 21 Aumento del rischio a priori per classe HLA sommando gli alleli di rischio “A” per i 3 SNP analizzati Free Powerpoint Templates 350.00 300.00 250.00 No Dq2 or DQ8 DQ22 200.00 DQ2T DQ2 150.00 DQ8 NODQ 100.00 DQ8 50.00 Double DQB1*02 0.00 2 3 3 3.5 3.75 4 4.25 4.5 4.75 5 N° di alleli di rischio “A” 5.5 6 22 Risultati dell’applicazione del modello predittivo Free Powerpoint Templates 101 fratelli Soggetti in esame Rischio HLA INTERMEDIO Classe G1-G2 Classi G3-G4 Classe G5 33 48 20 ALTO Rischio NON-HLA Combinazione rischio HLA + NON-HLA BASSO ALTO BASSO Score bayes ≥ mediana Score bayes ≤ mediana 26 22 ALTO 33+26= 59 BASSO 20+22= 42 23 ROC - Performance of the predicting model Free Powerpoint Templates 24 STUDI DI ESPRESSIONE GENICA Free Powerpoint Templates La genomica da sola è in grado di spiegare solo una quota della componente genetica della celiachia, la rimanente percentuale è attribuibile a meccanismi di epigenetica: •Regolazione genica dell’espressione •Metilazione del DNA •Azione di micro-RNA I Step: Analisi dell’espressione genica dei geni candidati in pazienti celiaci e controlli sani in diversi tessuti umani: •Mucosa intestinale •Linee cellulari di linfociti T •Monociti isolati da sangue periferico 25 DUODENAL BIOPSIY Free Powerpoint Templates • • • • SH2B3 expression was higher in CD mucosa than in controls TAGAP was significantly up-regolated in CD mucosa TNFSF14 levels were higher in CD patients and in CD-GFD patients TNFRSF14.TNFAIP3, and RGS1mRNA levels show a modest upregulation in CD patients versus controls also if this difference is not statistically significant 26 DUODENAL BIOPSY Free Powerpoint Templates •IL-21 are more elevated in CD than in control •IL-2, KIAA1109 mRNA do not show significantly variations among the two groups but they seem to have an up-regulating trend in CD •cREL expression was lower in CD monocytes compared with controls 27 DISCRIMINANT ANALYSIS Powerpoint Templates IN Free DUODENAL BIOPSY The aim of the discriminant analysis is to weigh the discriminating capacity of each single gene to obtain a single new composite variable.
