Molecular and immunological characterization of gluten proteins isolated from oat cultivars that differ in toxicity for celiac disease.

A strict gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only currently available therapeutic treatment for patients with celiac disease (CD). Traditionally, treatment with a GFD has excluded wheat, barley and rye, while the presence of oats is a subject of debate. The most-recent research indicates that some cultiva...
