anti-gliadin (AGA IgG) antibodies
The gluten sensitivity test is is used for diagnosing paroxysmal gluten sensitive dyskinesia. It includes anti-Gliadin IgG and transglutaminase IgA
- Detection of IgA against tissue transglutaminase and IgG against modified gliadin peptides.
- Gluten and its subfraction gliadin are found in wheat, spelt, rye and barley.
- Gluten intolerance leads to different clinical pictures depending on the breed: gluten-sensitive enteropathy in the Irish Setter and canine epileptoid cramping syndrome (CECS, Spike’s disease, paroxysmal gluten-sensitive dyskinesia) in the Border Terrier.
Mixed forms and gluten intolerance in other breeds have been described in the literature.
In one study, Laboklin was able to prove a clear or questionable gluten sensitivity in 39% of the dogs (see figure). The affected breeds were mainly mongrels, French Bulldogs, German Shepherds and Labrador Retrievers. Gluten sensitivity in the diagnosis of food allergies
