We analyzed 88 unrelated subjects with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes and 64 sibling controls (maximum one per diabetic) for associations between immunoglobulin allotype antigens (GM and KM) and Type 1 diabetes. None were found. However, we did find interactions between GM, HLA-DR, and Type 1 d

In this study HLA-DQA1 and TNF genes in addition to HLA-DQB1 gene were investigated at DNA level for elucidation of the genetic backgrounds of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus in Japanese subjects. DNA, amplified by polymerase chain reaction, was subjected to allele specific oligonucleot
To evaluate the behaviour and predictive value of islet cell and insulin autoantibodies in patients with organ-specific autoimmune diseases, we followed 21 non-diabetic subjects for a mean period of 84 +/- 27 months. Ten patients were persistently seropositive for complement-fixing islet cell antibo
