Editor’s summary
Fasano and colleagues propose new nomenclature and classifications within the spectrum of gluten-related disorders (GRDs), prompted by indications from the past decade that reactions to gluten may be caused by conditions other than celiac disease.

Editor’s summary
Celiac disease and gluten sensitivity sufferers have similar pathologies triggered by gluten ingestion, but have different mucosal immune profiles and gut permeabilities, which may explain the less severe pathology of gluten sensitivity as compared to celiac disease.
