Gluten-related disorders are a heterogeneous group of clinical entities caused by intolerance of wheat, rye, and barley flour components. They occur in 3-5% of genetically predisposed persons and based on pathogenic and clinical features are classified into celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and wheat allergy. There are also specific entities such as dermatitis herpetiformis or gluten ataxia, which can occur either within the celiac disease or independently. This article based on the current knowledge shows the basic details of the pathogenesis, clinical expression, diagnosis, and treatment of these disorders.

For many years the spectrum of gluten-related disorders had been limited only to celiac disease and its typical gastrointestinal symptoms. In the last few years, not only new disorders like non-celiac gluten sensitivity have been described, but also pathogeneses of celiac disease and wheat allergy have been better understood. It is also known that impaired gluten tolerance in many cases leads to appearance of extraintestinal symptoms that may affect any organ or system of the human body including the nervous system that may be the cause of some neurological disorders such as ataxia, neuropathy, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or schizophrenia. In this paper we present the spectrum of neurological disorders, whose pathogeneses may depend on gluten ingestion and some proposed mechanisms elucidating those pathogeneses.

Rising incidence of different variants of gluten intolerance associated with changes in eating behaviorin many countries, changes in the technology of growing and processing crops, new culinary technologies. Until recently, celiac disease, dermatitis herpetiformis and wheat allergy were the only known disease with a proven role of gluten in their pathogenesis. Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) - a new syndrome of intolerance to gluten. This pathology can be suspected in patients with persistent intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms clearly associated with the intake of foods containing gluten, the absence of serological markers of celiac disease or suspected allergy to wheat. The paper presents the current data on the epidemiology, etiology and pathogenesis, clinical features and diagnosis NCGS.

The publication of papers on the topic of gluten related disorders has substantially increased over the last few years. This has motivated healthcare professionals to pay attention not only to celiac disease and wheat allergy but also to a condition termed nonceliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). Until now this condition has been diagnosed clinically on the basis of exclusion criteria and clinical response to gluten withdrawal. In addition, recent research in this field has shown that other food components distinct from gluten are implicated in NCGS cases, thereby changing our general understanding of NCGS diagnosis in either individuals on gluten containing diets or those already following a gluten-free diet with no proper diagnostic work-up of celiac disease. With this in mind, the assessment of NCGS will require extensive knowledge of celiac disease manifestations and the laboratory tests commonly performed during diagnosis of celiac disease.

Background. Nonceliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a recently defined clinical entity characterized by intestinal and extraintestinal symptoms associated with gluten ingestion in individuals in whom celiac disease (CD) or wheat allergy (WA) has been excluded. Despite its name and definition, gluten has been shown to precipitate symptoms in only 16–30% of these patients. In addition to gluten, other components of wheat, including fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAPs), alpha-amylase trypsin inhibitors (ATIs) and wheat germ agglutinin have been implicated in the causation of the symptoms of NCGS, with FODMAPs garnering the most attention. We present a review of the existing literature evaluating the role of FODMAPs in NCGS symptomatology. Methods. A systematic review of PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE, and Google Scholar for keywords fructans, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, NCGS, FODMAPs, and gluten-free diet (GFD) was conducted through a series of advanced searches. Articles related to the use of fructans or FODMAPs were analyzed. Results. FODMAPs were found to be associated with gastrointestinal and extraintestinal symptoms in NCGS. Conclusions. A low FODMAP diet has potential for improvement of clinical symptoms in NCGS. In addition, some evidence suggests an additional benefit to simultaneous adherence to both low FODMAP diet and GFD.

Wheat is an essential part of the diet of many people around the world. Despite the many beneficial aspects of eating wheat products, they can be associated with the development of a variety of diseases. The spectrum of gluten-associated pathologies includes celiac disease, wheat allergy, and non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). The clinical symptoms of gluten-associated pathology are similar to those of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Diagnosis of celiac disease and wheat allergy is now straightforward. NCGS remains a diagnosis of exclusion due to the lack of specific biomarkers and standardized research methods. Many patients with IBS consider themselves gluten-sensitive and their symptoms are relieved by a gluten-free diet. Most likely it is NCGS that occurs in a heterogeneous group of patients with IBS. However it remains controversial whether the development of symptoms in this case is associated with gluten itself or with other components of wheat, such as non-gluten proteins and FODMAPs.

ABSTRACT Approximately 80% of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients report that their symptoms are triggered after ingesting one or specific food groups. Gluten, wheat and related proteins (e.g., amylase-trypsin inhibitors, and fermentable oligo-di-mono-saccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) are the most relevant IBS symptom triggers, although the true ‘culprit(s)’ is/are still not well established. The concept of causal relationship between gluten intake and the occurrence of symptoms in the absence of celiac disease and wheat allergy was termed non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). The borderline between celiac disease, wheat allergy, IBS and NCGS is not always clearly distinguishable, and the frequency and clinical identity of NGCS are still unclear. An overlap between IBS and NCGS has been detected. The incomplete knowledge of the etiopathogenesis of these clinical conditions, lack of data on their real epidemiology, as well as the absence of a gold standard for their diagnosis, make the overall picture difficult to understand “It is crucial to well define the interaction between IBS, food intolerance and NGCS, since the role of diet in IBS and its dietary management is an essential tool in the treatment of a large number of these patients”. The objective of the present review is to provide an overview highlighting the interaction between IBS, food intolerance and NCGS in order to unravel whether gluten/wheat/FODMAP sensitivity represents ‘facts’ and not ‘fiction’ in IBS symptoms.
