Order Celiac Disease Antibody Test | IgG & IgACeliac disease is an autoimmune condition triggered by gluten, and its diagnosis rests on a combination of clinical history, serologic testing, and, when indicated, intestinal biopsy. The Celiac Disease Antibody Test measures specific antibodies in the blood that can signal an immune response to gluten. This panel evaluates tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and gliadin antibodies of both the IgG and IgA classes, offering a broad view of the humoral response associated with celiac disease.
About Celiac Disease Antibody Test | IgG & IgA in Arcadia
Antibody testing is a cornerstone of celiac disease evaluation, but it is not a stand-alone diagnostic tool.
Tissue transglutaminase is the primary autoantigen in celiac disease. IgA antibodies against tTG are the most sensitive and specific serologic marker for the condition in individuals who produce normal amounts of IgA. Because selective IgA deficiency is more common in people with celiac disease, IgG-based assays are included to reduce the chance of a false-negative result.
Gliadin is a component of gluten, and antibodies against deamidated gliadin peptides can also be detected in celiac disease. While gliadin antibody tests are generally less specific than tTG assays, they can provide additional information, particularly in certain clinical scenarios or when tTG results are equivocal.
The panel reports four distinct antibody measurements: tTG IgG, tTG IgA, gliadin IgG, and gliadin IgA. Results must be interpreted in the context of the individual's symptoms, family history, and other clinical findings. A positive antibody test does not confirm celiac disease on its own; it indicates that further evaluation, often including endoscopic biopsy, may be warranted. Conversely, negative results do not entirely exclude the condition, especially if the person has already been following a gluten-free diet or has an IgA deficiency.
