Gliadin constitutes a class of proteins that are present in wheat and other cereal which give it the ability to rise properly when baked. The main types of gliadin are alpha, beta, gamma and omega gliadins. Research has suggested that antibody reactivity against all the above mentioned forms of gliadin are found in individuals with ‘Wheat related disorders.’

Gamma globulin is a major class of immunoglobulins found in the blood, including many of the most common antibodies circulating in the blood.
The gamma globulin band consists of 5 immunoglobulins:
- 80% is immunoglobulin G (IgG)
- 15% is immunoglobulin A (IgA)
- 5% is immunoglobulin M (IgM)
- 0.2% is immunoglobulin D (IgD)
- A trace is immunoglobulin E (IgE)
Optimal range: 0 - 0 %
The gamma-globulin fraction contains the immunoglobulins, a family of proteins that function as antibodies.
Optimal range: 0 - 8.41 pg/mL
IFN-γ is a helper T-cell 1 (Th1)-derived cytokine and plays a critical role for both innate and adaptive immunity against viral and intracellular bacterial infections and tumor control.
Optimal range: 5 - 46 µmol/L
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is an omega-6 fatty acid. The body converts linoleic acid to gamma-linolenic acid and then to arachidonic acid (AA).
You can get gamma-linolenic acid from several plant-based oils, including evening primrose oil (EPO), borage oil, and black currant seed oil. Most of these oils also contain some linoleic acid.
Gamma-linolenic acid contains 18 carbons and 3 double bonds. It is synthesized from linoleic acid by adding a double bond using the delta-6-desaturase enzyme. This enzymatic reaction is very slow and further impaired in vitamin and mineral deficiencies such as zinc and cobalt. Stress, smoking, alcohol, and systemic inflammatory conditions can also slow this conversion.

Gliadin is a glycoprotein. It is an alcohol-soluble protein present in wheat and occurring in various forms (a-, g-, and w-gliadins). g-Gliadins-15-mer are considered to be the most ancient of the gluten family. This group of gliadins works with gluten proteins to determine the functional properties of wheat flour.

Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) is an enzyme most commonly associated with the liver. GGT tests are often run to determine the cause and extent of liver damage or to monitor treatment of alcohol abuse disorders. While an elevated GGT score may be a cause for concern, a normal or low score is generally not.

Gamma-tocopherol is part of the Vitamin E classification group.
The term vitamin E refers to a group of eight naturally occurring compounds, all with different potencies:
– alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol and
– alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-tocotrienol.

Gammaglobulin A refers to the portion of the gamma globulin protein fraction that includes Immunoglobulin A (IgA), a key antibody involved in immune defense. IgA is primarily found in mucosal areas such as the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, as well as in secretions like saliva, tears, and breast milk. It plays a crucial role in neutralizing pathogens at mucosal surfaces, helping prevent infections before they enter the bloodstream. While the term "gammaglobulin A" is sometimes used interchangeably with IgA, it more broadly reflects the presence of IgA within the gamma globulin class of serum proteins. Abnormal levels of gammaglobulin A—or more specifically, IgA—may indicate immune disorders, chronic infections, or certain inflammatory conditions.
Optimal range: 635 - 1741 mg/dL
Gamma globulin G, more precisely known as Immunoglobulin G (IgG), is the most abundant type of antibody in the human body, accounting for approximately 75% of all serum immunoglobulins. As a key component of the gamma globulin fraction of blood proteins, IgG plays a critical role in the immune system's defense against bacterial and viral infections. It is produced by plasma cells and circulates in the blood and extracellular fluid, where it recognizes and binds to specific antigens, marking them for destruction by other immune cells. IgG is also the only antibody class that can cross the placenta, providing passive immunity to newborns. Clinically, IgG levels are often measured to assess immune function or to diagnose conditions such as immunodeficiencies, chronic infections, or autoimmune diseases.
