Vedolizumab Induction May Prevent Celiac Enteritis

Summary

Celiac disease (CD) is characterized as an autoimmune disorder whereby gluten (a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, malt) induces an immunological response in genetically susceptible individuals. The prevalence of CD has been estimated to affect 0.5-1% of the population worldwide. Long term sequelae are numerous and include risk of lymphoma, malabsorption leading to weight loss, anemia, multiple vitamin deficiencies, osteoporosis/osteopenia, secondary autoimmunity, etc. (1)
