If celiac disease runs in your family or you suspect a gluten sensitivity, this combo panel screens for multiple celiac-related antibodies in one draw, giving a broader picture than a single antibody test alone. No doctor’s visit needed to order.
This test is used to detect IgA and IgG antibodies to deamidated gliadin-derived peptides (DGP) and human tissue transglutaminase (h-tTG) in human serum. The presence of these antibodies can be used together with other lab tests to help diagnose IgA-sufficient and IgA-deficient celiac disease.
Recommended For:
Those who have or suspect having Celiac Disease.
Frequently Asked Questions About The Celiac Disease Combo Profile:
Q: Do I need to be eating gluten before this test?
A: Yes — celiac antibody testing is only accurate if you’re currently eating gluten regularly. Stopping gluten before testing can cause a false negative.
Q: How is this different from a single celiac antibody test?
A: This combo panel checks multiple antibody markers at once, giving a more complete picture than testing just one antibody in isolation.
Q: Do I need to fast before this test?
A: No fasting is required.
Q: What happens if my results are positive?
A: Share your results with your doctor, who may recommend further evaluation, including a possible biopsy, to confirm a celiac diagnosis.
