Özet

Objective: In celiac disease (CD), gluten intake triggers the release of T-cell-derived pro-inflammatory cytokines leading to an increase in the level of serum amyloid A (SAA). To confirm inflammation caused by CD in patients, SAA level is expected to be a better biomarker candidate than C-reactive protein (CRP). This study investigated the relationship between clinical and biochemical variables used in the follow-up of CD patients and SAA levels.
