Thioredoxin is involved in endothelial cell extracellular transglutaminase 2 activation mediated by celiac disease patient IgA.

PURPOSE:To investigate the role of thioredoxin (TRX), a novel regulator of extracellular transglutaminase 2 (TG2), in celiac patients IgA (CD IgA) mediated TG2 enzymatic activation. METHODS:TG2 enzymatic activity was evaluated in endothelial cells (HUVECs) under different experimental conditions by...
