TITLE: “Restoration of impaired microbiota-mediated aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling in celiac disease by oral tryptophan supplementation: an exploratory study”
SPEAKER: Utkarshini Kirtikar, PhD Student, Dr. Verdu
OBJECTIVES: At the end of the session, participants should be able to:
1. Understand celiac disease and the challenges that come with following a gluten-free diet
2. Gain valuable insights into celiac patients who do not respond to a gluten-free diet, emphasizing the need for developing adjuvant therapies
3. Explore the role of tryptophan metabolism by the gut microbiota, exploring its potential as a novel therapeutic approach to enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for celiac patients through a clinical trial
