Enteropathy-Associated T-Cell Lymphoma Type I Strongly Expresses CD30
Celiac.com 10/25/2016 - Some potentially big news for people who suffer from enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), an intestinal tumor that targets intraepithelial T lymphocytes. EATL may be preceded by refractory celiac disease (RCD), which resists treatment with gluten-free diet. In almost all cases, a range of the tumor cells express CD30.
RCD occurs in two types based on the absence (type I) or presence (type II) of abnormal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) showing down-regulation of CD8 and often TCR gamma genes rearrangement. RCD II is now considered as a small cell intraepithelial T-cell lymphoma that could be an intermediate stage between celiac disease and EATL.
A team of researchers recently set out to establish the pattern of CD30 expression in EATL, which help...

Interleukin-15-Dependent T-Cell-like Innate Intraepithelial Lymphocytes Develop in the Intestine and Transform into Lymphomas in Celiac Disease
Celiac.com 12/22/2016 - The nature of gut intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) lacking antigen receptors remains controversial. A team of researchers recently set out to better understand the mechanisms by which innate intraepithelial lymphocytes develop in the intestine and become cancerous in celiac disease patients.
The research team included J Ettersperger, N Montcuquet, G Malamut, N Guegan, S Lopez-Lastra, S Gayraud, C Reimann, E Vidal, N Cagnard, P Villarese, I Andre-Schmutz, R Gomes Domingues, C Godinho-Silva, H Veiga-Fernandes, L Lhermitte, V Asnafi, E Macintyre, C Cellier, K Beldjord, JP Di Santo, N Cerf-Bensussan, and B Meresse.
They are variously affiliated with the INSERM UMR1163, Laboratory of Intestinal Immunity, Institut Imagine; Laboratory of Human Lymphohematopoiesis...

What Can We Learn from T-cell Repertoires in Refractory Celiac Disease?
$What Can We Learn from T-cell Repertoires in Refractory Celiac Disease?$

Celiac.com 07/03/2017 - Refractory celiac disease (RCD) is a serious complication of celiac disease. There are two types, RCD I, and RCD II. Unlike RCD type I, RCD type II often leads to enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), which is associated with clonally expanding T-cells that are also found in the sequentially developing EATL.
Using high-throughput sequencing (HTS), a team of researchers recently set out to establish the small-intestinal T-cell repertoire (TCR) in celiac disease and RCD to unravel the role of distinct T-cell clonotypes in RCD pathogenesis.
The research team included J Ritter, K Zimmermann, K Jöhrens, S Mende, A Seegebarth, B Siegmund, S Hennig, K Todorova, A Rosenwald, S Daum, M Hummel, and M Schumann.

Older Adults Diagnosed with Celiac Disease Face Higher T-cell Lymphoma Risk
Celiac.com 05/22/2019 - What are the risks for lymphoma and gastrointestinal cancer in patients 55 years and older with newly diagnosed adult-onset celiac disease?
Researchers and clinicians have reported connections between celiac disease and the development of certain lymphoid and gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, but there just isn't much good data. Without good data, it's impossible to develop effective evidence-based follow-up protocols.
In an effort to develop better information on the subject, a team of researchers recently set out to determine relative (RR) and absolute risks of lymphoma and GI carcinoma for newly diagnosed adult celiac patients.
The research team included Tom van Gils, Petula Nijeboer, Lucy IH Overbeek, Michael Hauptmann, Daan AR Castelijn, Gerd...

  Neurologist says deficiencies are caused by some malabsorption
  
  Hi, I'm writing here to help my boyfriend who is struggling with doctors and exams that didn't go anywhere. Frustration led me to write symptoms and results from different exams to AI (since I saw the debate about AI as an assistant to diagnosis is wide open) and it said that celiac is the most probable cause of all his symptoms. But I need now opinions...

  But you have already had the genetic testing done and you have results. You have one main celiac gene out of two main celiac genes. You have the HL-DQ8 gene. So, you do have the potential for developing celiac disease.

  oh wow that's so interesting! if I do re-scope, I will try to eat gluten more as well. when I do its super light. so maybe trying to keep that consistent for a while then the scope. plus i want to still do the genetic testing to rule it out. that would be so easy if that is negative then I for sure don't have it.

  Keep us posted about the scoping results. Make sure before the scoping you ask them to take several samples from both the duodenum and the duodenum bulb. Damage can be patchy and is sometimes missed if insufficient sampling is done during the biopsying.

  so all this info has been really helpful... thank you! I recently tested again and was IGA negative for celiac, but further testing says I am positive for one of the variants that is associated with celiac. (HLA DQ8) also says value 1 and 3 for HLA DQA1, but idk what that means. Anyway, now they are suggesting repeat scope. sometimes gluten makes...
