Blood was drawn from 74 children, 3-16 years old, at diagnosis of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes and before the first insulin injection. Insulin autoantibodies were detected with a polyethylen-glycol-method in 27/74 (36.4%) and with an immuno-electrophoretic method in 6/74 (8.1%). Islet cell cy
The prevalence of islet cell antibodies in children with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes was determined in a cohort of 678 children. The natural course of islet cell antibodies was followed in 375 children at 1 year, 252 and 135 children after 2 and 3 years respectively. Islet cell antibodies we
Islet cell antibodies and glutamic acid decarboxylase II (GAD II) antibodies have been discussed in the autoimmune pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Hence, immunosuppressants, intravenous immunoglobulins, and plasmapheresis have been used in an effort to modulate autoimmune
