Nomenclature and listing of celiac disease relevant gluten T-cell epitopes restricted by HLA-DQ molecules

Abstract: Celiac disease is caused by an abnormal intestinal T-cell response to gluten proteins of wheat, barley and rye. Over the last few years, a number of gluten T-cell epitopes restricted by celiac disease associated HLA-DQ molecules have been characterized. In this work, we give an overview of these epitopes and suggest a comprehensive, new nomenclature.

“…Identification is further complicated in multiple sclerosis (MS), for example, by the fact that the appropriate target antigen may change over time due to epitope spreading. Nevertheless, in some disorders, including celiac disease, MS, and type 1 diabetes, numerous antigens have been identified [80,[82][83][84]. Another potential strategy, which both harnesses the natural mechanisms that may have initiated autoimmunity and obviates the need for knowing the precise epitopes, may be the use of full-length proteins.…”

“…Additionally, all of the remaining DQ2.2-binding peptides we identified carry serine residues in their sequences, which could potentially be positioned at P3 when bound to the HLA molecule. None of the known DQ2.5 gluten epitopes carries serine at P3 (12). Serine at P3 thus seems to play a crucial role for the differential selection of gluten epitopes by DQ2.5 and DQ2.2.…”

“…The gluten T cell epitopes presented by DQ2.5 are fairly well characterized (12). Less is known about the gluten epitopes presented by DQ8 or DQ2.2, and only one DQ2.2 T cell epitope is known (7,12). Typically the gluten peptides that are recognized by T cells of CD patients are posttranslationally modified (13,14).…”

“…The celiac disease is a model autoimmune disease, in which, contrarily to many other autoimmune diseases, the trigger (gluten), the tight genetic junction (HLA antigens: DQ2 and DQ8), as well as the primary autoimmune reaction [autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase (tTG)] are known (Fric et al, 2011;Sollid et al, 2012;Tye-Din et al, 2010). This knowledge represents an advantage in the development of new diagnosis and treatment methods, as well as for the development of food analytical techniques that can easily and accurately detect the presence of gluten-related toxic protein fractions, such as gliadins.…”
