Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Test
What is the Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Test?
Direct answer: The tTG IgA test detects IgA antibodies against tissue transglutaminase to screen for coeliac disease.
The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA (tTG IgA) test is a blood investigation used to identify an autoimmune reaction to gluten. Tissue transglutaminase is an intestinal enzyme, and elevated IgA antibodies against it are a strong indicator of coeliac disease. This test is considered the primary laboratory screening method before confirming diagnosis through further evaluation.
At healthcare nt sickcare, the tTG IgA test is available in Pune through Home Collection Facility and Direct Walk-in Facility. For guidance before giving your sample, refer to our test preparation guide.
Why is the tTG IgA Test advised?
Direct answer: It helps detect coeliac disease in individuals with gluten sensitivity symptoms.
This test is advised for individuals experiencing long-term digestive discomfort, bloating, chronic diarrhoea, unexplained weight loss, or nutrient deficiency. Early detection helps prevent intestinal damage caused by untreated gluten intolerance. To learn more about digestive autoimmune conditions, explore our digestive health articles.
