Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune enteropathy and multifactorial disease caused by inappropriate immune responses to gluten in the small intestine. Weight loss, anemia, osteoporosis, arthritis, and hepatitis are among the extraintestinal manifestations of active CD. Currently, a strict lifelong gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only safe, effective, and available treatment. Despite the social burden, high expenses, and challenges of following a GFD, 2 to 5 percent of patients do not demonstrate clinical or pathophysiological improvement. Therefore, we need novel and alternative therapeutic approaches for patients. Innovative approaches encompass a broad spectrum of strategies, including enzymatic degradation of gluten, inhibition of intestinal permeability, modulation of the immune response, inhibition of the transglutaminase 2 (TG2) enzyme, blocking antigen presentation by HLA-DQ2/8, and induction of tolerance. Hence, this review is focused on comprehensive therapeutic strategies ranging from dietary approaches to novel methods such as antigen-based immunotherapy, cell and gene therapy, and the usage of nanoparticles for CD treatment.

Targeting the immunogenetic diseases with the appropriate HLA molecular typing: critical appraisal on 2666 patients typed in one single centre. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2013; 2013:904247.

Abstract
We compared the immunogenetic data from 2666 patients affected by HLA-related autoimmune diseases with those from 4389 ethnically matched controls (3157 cord blood donors CBD, 1232 adult bone marrow donors BMD), to verify the appropriateness of HLA typing requests received in the past decade. The frequency of HLA-B∗27 phenotype was 10.50% in 724 ankylosing spondylitis, 16.80% in 125 uveitis (3.41% BMD, 4.24% CBD, P < 0.0001); HLA-B∗51 allele was 15.57% in 212 Behçet's disease (12.91% BMD, 9.88% CBD, P < 0.0001); the HLA-DRB1-rheumatoid arthritis (RA) shared epitope was 13.72% in 554 RA (10.85% BMD, 13.48% CBD, P = 0.016); the carriers of almost one of HLA-DQB1 susceptibility alleles were 84.91% in 795 celiac disease (CD) and 59.37% in 256 insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) (46.06% in 875 CBD, 42.75% in 662 BMD P < 0.0001). Overall, our results show that the HLA marker frequencies were higher in patients than controls, but lower than expected from the literature data (excluding CD and IDDM) and demonstrate that, in complex immunogenetic conditions, a substantial number of genetic analyses are redundant and inappropriate, burdening to the public health costs. For this reason, we suggest the Italian Scientific Society of Immunogenetics to establish guidelines to improve the appropriateness of typing requests.

Abstract
The wheat gluten protein alpha-gliadin, a well known trigger of celiac disease, can be complexed by random copolymers of hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and sodium 4-styrene sulfonate (SS). In this work, influence of alpha-gliadin and poly(HEMA-co-SS) concentrations on alpha-gliadin structure was studied using spectroscopic techniques and dynamic light scattering. In 70% ethanol or 0.06M HCl (pH 1.2), alpha-gliadin was found to self-associate upon increasing its concentrations and displayed decreased alpha-helical content and increased beta-turn and beta-sheet contents. At pH 1.2, alpha-gliadin interacted with poly(HEMA-co-SS) to form supra-molecular complex particles. Poly(HEMA-co-SS) induced alpha-gliadin structural changes that mimicked those obtained by varying the protein concentration in pure solution. At pH 6.8, alpha-gliadin was poorly soluble and formed large particles but alpha-helix is still main secondary structure. The influence of the polymer on protein structure was weaker at neutral than acidic pH. Interaction with poly(HEMA-co-SS) disrupted alpha-gliadin conformation and self-association to form new complex particles at neutral pH. This study provides insight into the mechanism of poly(HEMA-co-SS)/alpha-gliadin interaction and the polymer as alpha-gliadin sequestering agents in the supportive treatment of celiac disease.
