Migration indices were significantly less (indicating sensitisation) in untreated and in treated patients than in controls, and significantly less in treated patients than in untreated patients. At a concentration of 1 mg\/ml gluten fraction III, 13% of untreated patients and 54% of treated patients had migration indices in the sensitised range. At 2 mg\/ml gluten fraction III, sensitisation was demonstrated in 8% of untreated patients and 48% of treated patients. After starting a gluten free diet, migration indices fell into the sensitised range in all patients followed. After at least nine months on a gluten free diet, migration indices were significantly higher in those patients with a normal interepithelial lymphocyte count than in those patients with a raised interepithelial lymphocyte count. Cell-mediated immunity to gluten fraction III can be detected in the peripheral blood of certain patients with coeliac disease. Detectable sensitivity is related to the time on a gluten free diet, and the interepithelial lymphocyte count.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.19.2.126","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,18]],"date-time":"2007-09-18T17:41:31Z","timestamp":1190137291000},"page":"126-131","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Cell-mediated immunity to gluten fraction III in adult coeliac disease."],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"A W","family":"Bullen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M S","family":"Losowsky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1978,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"895","article-title":"Cell-mediated immunity to gliadin within the small-intestinal mucosa in coeliac disease","volume":"1","author":"Ferguson, A.; MacDonald, T.T.; McClure, J.P.; Holden, R.J.","year":"1975","unstructured":"Ferguson, A., MacDonald, T.
