Celiac disease affects an estimated three million Americans. 80% of Americans with celiac disease are not diagnosed and are needlessly suffering. Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Testing is used to aid in the diagnosis of Celiac Disease or other conditions related to gluten sensitivity such as Dermatitis Herpetiformis. There are two types of tTG antibodies which typically develop in people with Celiac Disease, IgA and IgG. This test looks for both IgG and IgA antibodies. Tissue Transglutaminase Antibody, IgA, is useful in diagnosing gluten-sensitive enteropathies, such as Celiac Sprue Disease, and an associated skin condition, dermatitis herpetiformis....

Celiac disease affects an estimated three million Americans. 80% of Americans with celiac disease are not diagnosed and are needlessly suffering. Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Testing is used to aid in the diagnosis of Celiac Disease or other conditions related to gluten sensitivity such as Dermatitis Herpetiformis. There are two types of tTG antibodies which typically develop in people with Celiac Disease, IgA and IgG. This test looks for both IgG and IgA antibodies. Tissue Transglutaminase Antibody, IgA, is useful in diagnosing gluten-sensitive enteropathies, such as Celiac Sprue Disease, and an associated skin condition, dermatitis herpetiformis. The IgG test is useful in patients who are IgA-deficient. The IgG test also provides support for gluten-sensitive enteropathies beyond the IgA test.
Please do not exercise prior to testing. It is best that your blood is taken in a rested state.
Note: Turn around times on results are an estimate and are not guaranteed. The lab may need additional time due to holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, etc. You can contact us to discuss when your results should be ready and we will contact the lab on your behalf immediately.
