Residual insulin secretion at diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is independently associated with both, age of onset and HLA genotype

Abstract: The degree of beta-cell destruction at diagnosis of T1DM is independently associated with both, age of onset and HLA genotypes, the two variables exert a similar quantitative effect on residual beta-cell function at diagnosis.

“…We have previously demonstrated that C-peptide levels are significantly higher in patients with low HLA DRB1-DQB1 risk genotypes compared with those with high and moderate risk at disease diagnosis (17), underlining the importance of the genetic component in the preservation of ␤-cell function.…”

“…The disease risk is transmitted through the altered antigen-presenting function of dendritic cells (that express high levels of LYP), the altered activation of helper T cells and likely also via the decreased function of self-reactive regulatory T cells [48]. The c.1858C>T polymorphism of PTPN22 is associated with decreased residual β-cell function at the onset of T1DM [49,50]. The recent discovery of the expression of islet cell autoantibodies in 17-25% of MODY patients of Czech, German and Austrian origin [29,30,31] raises the question of whether the islet cell autoantibodies are present in a fraction of MODY patients because of their susceptibility to autoimmune disorders or whether these autoantibodies appear physiologically only as a transient result of β-cell destruction.…”

“…Antibodies were determined at the screening visit, month 2, 7, 13 and 18. HLA typing was performed at a central laboratory in Italy as described [17] in all patients of study p520 and p521 for whom HLA type was not already known.…”
