Gliadin

From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history

Gliadin is a class of proteins present in wheat and several other cereals within the grass genus Triticum. Gliadins are a component of gluten. Gliadin can cross the lining of the digestive tract. It also increases the production of zonulin, a pro-inflammatory protein that increases intestinal permeability.
