A 'Trojan' placed in the body reduces celiac disease symptoms by 90%

Injected into the bloodstream, the nanoparticle containing gluten is exchanged for debris and removed without causing the symptoms of celiac disease.

celiac disease symptoms

People with celiac disease have two options in life, none of which are properly ideal. Since their immune system cannot tolerate gluten, they can choose never to eat the many delicious foods that contain it. Boring.

Or they can gobble up all the cake, bread, and beer they want - but resign themselves to the symptoms of celiac disease: abdominal pain, diarrhea and other bad side effects, because their immune system triggers an inflammatory response in their small intestine.

Needless to say, people tend to choose the first option (wisely) also by virtue of the vertical growth of the gluten-free market, with excellent products that sometimes do not make us regret those with gluten.

However, new technology could allow them to eat exactly what all non-celiacs eat.

The researchers of the Northwestern University they developed a technology on October 22nd that I told you about here.

Tuesday the technology, along with more details on the amazing results of the studies, was presented at the European Week of Gastroenterology Conference, and works as a kind of vaccine using a biodegradable nanoparticle as a vehicle that "carries" some gluten.

Injected into a person's bloodstream, the nanoparticle is mistaken for simple debris, and removed by macrophage cells.

from the immune system as somewhat harmless debris, then it allows a macrophage - a type of cell tasked with removing that debris from the body - to devour the particle, hidden gluten and everything in between.

It is as if the particle is saying to the immune system "Do not worry: gluten is a simple detritus", says the researcher Stephen Miller in a press release. "The immune system then stops its attack on the allergen, the symptoms of celiac disease do not occur and the body remains in normal conditions."

The tests

The researchers tested the nanoparticles in a phase 2 clinical trial in people with celiac disease.

Some participants were given two intravenous treatments, one with nanoparticles and the other with nothing to serve as a control group. One week later both groups were fed gluten for the next 14 days, e the group treated with nanoparticles had 90% lower immune inflammation than participants in the control group.

The test only targeted celiacs, but researchers believe they can use this system to treat other diseases too, from peanut allergy to multiple sclerosis.
