Anti Deamidated Gliadin Peptide - IgG

Measures IgG antibodies to deamidated gliadin peptides to detect immune reaction to gluten and celiac disease in Visit Clinic.
What is a Anti Deamidated Gliadin Peptide - IgG Test in Visit Clinic?
This test measures IgG antibodies directed against deamidated gliadin peptides (DGP). These antibodies form when the immune system reacts to gluten, a protein in wheat, barley, and rye. Detecting DGP IgG helps identify an immune response linked to celiac disease and some gluten-related disorders. It is useful when IgA-based tests are unreliable, such as in people with IgA deficiency or very young children. Doctors use it with other blood tests and clinical signs to screen for celiac disease, guide further testing like intestinal biopsy, and sometimes to monitor response to a gluten-free diet. A positive result prompts further evaluation and dietary discussion.

Why Take a Anti Deamidated Gliadin Peptide - IgG Test in Visit Clinic?

Abnormal results can come from ongoing gluten intake, autoimmune activity, or immune deficiencies. Family history of celiac disease increases the need for testing.
