Gluten is a protein found in wheat and other cereals as barley and rye. It triggers an inflammatory reaction in the small-bowel of genetically predisposed persons. Alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors (ATIs) of wheat seem to be the responsible trigger of this intestinal Inflammation.
Intestinal inflammation is connected to other extra-intestinal autoimmune inflammations like PSC (as f.ex. the association of PSC with inflammatory bowel disease proves).
Hypothesis: Avoidance of ATIs through a gluten-free diet will reduce intestinal inflammation and thus also the the inflammatory activity in the liver.
Proof of hypothesis:
