Celiac disease is a hereditary disease characterized by the atrophy of the small intestine mucosa caused by gluten intolerance.
To identify this intolerance, it is necessary to conduct a molecular analysis of the HLA-DQ2 gene since in 95% of cases gluten intolerance is associated with mutations in this particular gene. More than 97% of patients with celiac disease have such haplotype variants as HLA-DQ2 (DQA1*05/DQB1*02) or HLA-DQ8 (DQA1*03/DQB1*03).
As a result of DNA testing, you will find out whether you are a carrier of unfavorable mutations in the HLA-DQ2 gene (HLA-DQ2A1 and HLA-DQ2B1 loci). The presence of mutations in the HLA-DQ2 gene indicates a very high degree of a predisposition to celiac disease.
