Celiac disease is caused by an abnormal intestinal T-cell response to gluten proteins of
wheat, barley and rye. Over the last few years, a number of gluten T-cell epitopes restricted
by celiac disease associated HLA-DQ molecules have been characterized. In this work, we
give an overview of these epitopes and suggest a comprehensive, new nomenclature.
