ABSTRACT
The interplay between fatty acids (FAs) and celiac disease (CD) is a burgeoning field of research with significant implications for understanding the pathophysiology and potential therapeutic avenues for this autoimmune disorder. CD, triggered by gluten consumption in susceptible individuals, presents with a range of intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms impacting various bodily functions. The disruption of intestinal tight junctions (TJs) by gluten proteins leads to increased gut permeability and subsequent inflammatory responses mediated by T-cells. FAs, crucial components of cell membranes, play diverse roles in inflammation and immune regulation. In fact, FAs have been shown to modulate inflammatory processes through various mechanisms. Studies have highlighted alterations in FA profiles in individuals with CD, indicating potential implications for disease pathogenesis and micronutrient deficiencies. Moreover, the exploration of FAs as biomarkers for CD diagnosis offers promising avenues for future research and therapeutic interventions. Understanding the intricate relationship between FAs and CD could lead to novel approaches in managing this complex autoimmune disorder. Therefore, this review article aims to provide an overview of the connection between FAs and inflammation in CD.
