Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Test
What is the Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Test?
Direct answer: The tTG IgG test detects IgG antibodies against tissue transglutaminase to help screen for coeliac disease, especially in individuals with IgA deficiency.
The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG (tTG IgG) test is a specialised blood investigation used to identify autoimmune response to gluten. Tissue transglutaminase is an enzyme found in the intestinal lining, and the presence of IgG antibodies against it may indicate coeliac disease in patients who cannot produce adequate IgA antibodies. This test supports accurate diagnosis before dietary changes are made.
At healthcare nt sickcare, this test is available in Pune with both Home Collection Facility and Direct Walk-in Facility. It is commonly advised for individuals with persistent digestive discomfort, unexplained anaemia, or suspected gluten sensitivity. For general test readiness, refer to our test preparation guide.
Why is the tTG IgG Test advised?
Direct answer: It helps detect coeliac disease in patients with IgA deficiency or unclear IgA test results.
This test is recommended when standard tTG IgA screening is inconclusive. It improves diagnostic accuracy in patients showing symptoms such as chronic diarrhoea, bloating, fatigue, or poor nutrient absorption. To understand how autoimmune gut disorders develop, you may explore our educational article on digestive health available in our health articles section.
If you wish to understand how this test compares with broader health screening options, refer to our health checkup comparison page.
