Early marine survival of juvenile salmon is intimately associated with their physiological condition during smoltification and ocean entry. Smoltification (parr-smolt transformation) is a developmental process that allows salmon to acquire seawater tolerance in preparation for marine living. Traditi...
Small RNAs play a critical role in host-pathogen interaction. In insects, for instance, small RNA-mediated silencing or RNA interference (RNAi) represents the main antiviral defense system. However, the antiviral role of RNAi has not been clearly proven in higher vertebrates. On the contrary, it is ...
ORGANISM(S): Chlorocebus aethiops 

Background

Deep immune receptor sequencing, RepSeq, provides unprecedented opportunities for identifying and studying condition-associated T-cell clonotypes, represented by T-cell receptor (TCR) CDR3 sequences. However, due to the immense diversity of the immune repertoire, identification of...

Background

Serological screening of the relatives of coeliac disease patients is widely endorsed. However, the need for and the optimal timing of possible re-testing of once seronegative at-risk individuals for coeliac disease remain unclear.

Objective

We investigated this issue by in...

Background

Low ferritin without anaemia has been linked to adverse health effects.

Objectives

To investigate the prevalence and clinical significance of low ferritin in screen-detected coeliac disease.

Methods

Seventy-six screen-detected coeliac disease patients were enrolled i...

Background

The diagnostic yield of coeliac disease could be improved by screening in at-risk groups, but long-term benefits of this approach are obscure.

Objective

To investigate health, quality of life and dietary adherence in adult coeliac patients diagnosed in childhood by screenin...
The prevalence and associated factors of daily life restrictions due to a gluten-free diet in adult celiac disease patients diagnosed in childhood are poorly known. We investigated these issues by collecting the medical data of 955 pediatric patients and sending questionnaires evaluating various hea...

Objectives

Duodenal bulb specimens are recommended for the diagnostic evaluation of celiac disease (CeD). However, it remains unclear if their quality and histomorphometry measures are comparable to samples obtained from the distal duodenum. We investigated this issue, as well as the diagnos...

Purpose

We evaluated adherence to a gluten-free diet and associated factors in adult celiac disease patients diagnosed in childhood.

Methods

Comprehensive medical data on 955 pediatric celiac disease patients was collected and study questionnaires sent to 559 who were now adults. All ...

Background

It is not known if genetic background, characteristics at diagnosis, physical and psychological well-being, and adherence to a gluten-free diet are comparable between patients with familial or sporadic celiac disease. These issues were investigated in a follow-up study.
