title: Naloxone antagonises effect of alpha-gliadin on leucocyte migration in patients with coeliac disease.
abstract: The effect of naloxone on inhibition of leucocyte migration by alpha-gliadin was examined in 24 patients with coeliac disease. In all cases in which alpha-gliadin inhibited leucocyte migration, naloxone blocked this inhibitory effect, which suggests that the effect of gliadin on lymphocytes from patients with coeliac disease may be mediated through opioid-like receptors.
