What Is the TTG IgA Test?

TTG IgA measures IgA antibodies against tissue transglutaminase (tTG).

These antibodies can be elevated in people with celiac disease. The test is commonly used as an initial blood test when celiac disease is suspected.

A positive result generally needs to be interpreted with symptoms, medical history and, when appropriate, additional testing.

Why Is the TTG IgA Test Done?

A doctor may recommend TTG IgA testing when symptoms or other findings raise the possibility of celiac disease.

Possible symptoms include:

  • Persistent diarrhoea
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Nutritional deficiencies
  • Iron-deficiency anemia
  • Chronic digestive problems
  • Poor growth in children

Some people with celiac disease may have mild symptoms or no obvious digestive symptoms.

TTG IgA and Celiac Disease

Celiac disease is an immune-mediated condition in which eating gluten can damage the lining of the small intestine.

The TTG IgA antibody test is widely used as part of the initial evaluation. Doctors may also consider total IgA because IgA deficiency can affect the interpretation of an IgA-based test.

A diagnosis should not be made from the TTG IgA result alone.

What Does a Positive TTG IgA Result Mean?

A positive or elevated TTG IgA result can indicate that celiac disease should be investigated further.

Depending on the result and clinical situation, a doctor may recommend additional antibody testing and, in some cases, an intestinal biopsy.

What Does a Negative TTG IgA Result Mean?

A negative TTG IgA result makes celiac disease less likely, but it does not completely exclude it in every situation.

For example, people with IgA deficiency may require different testing. Your doctor will interpret the result based on your symptoms and other investigations.

Should You Stop Eating Gluten Before the Test?

If celiac disease is being investigated, do not start a gluten-free diet before testing unless your doctor advises you to do so.

Removing gluten from the diet can affect antibody levels and may make testing less informative.

Always discuss dietary changes with your healthcare professional before testing.

Is Fasting Required for TTG IgA?

Usually, fasting is not required for a standalone TTG IgA blood test.

Follow any specific instructions provided by your doctor or diagnostic laboratory, particularly if other tests are being performed at the same time.

How Is the TTG IgA Test Done?

A small blood sample is collected from a vein, usually from the arm. The sample is then sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Your doctor may interpret the result along with other tests, such as total IgA, depending on your clinical situation.
