Agglutinating activity of alcohol-soluble proteins from quinoa seed flour in celiac disease
The edible seeds of the quinoa plant contain small quantities of alcohol-soluble protein which, after peptic-tryptic digestion, are unable to agglutinate K562(s) cells. When separated by affinity chromatograph...

Intestinal Mucosa of Celiacs in Remission Is Unable To Abolish Toxicity of Gliadin Peptides on in Vitro Develo** Fetal Rat Intestine And Cultured Atrophic Celiac Mucosa
ABSTRACT: Subfraction 2R of fraction 9 from a peptic-tryptic-pancreatic digest of wheat gliadin is known to be toxic in vivo to celiac patients. We have found that fractions 9 and 2R inhibit the in vitro devel...
