Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Celiac disease is triggered by the ingestion of gluten, which is found in wheat, barley, and rye. Gluten is made up of two proteins: gliadin and glutenin. Gliadin is the component of gluten that triggers the immune response in celiac disease. Secalin is a protein found in rye that can also trigger celiac disease in some individuals. Hordein is a protein found in barley that can also trigger celiac disease in some individuals. Therefore, all of the above (gluten, secalin, and hordein) can trigger celiac disease episodes.
