Type 1 diabetes in mice is linked to the interleukin-1 receptor and Lsh/lty/Bcg genes on chromosome 1

Abstract: Human type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes is a common auto-immune disease of the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas which is caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Several features of the genetics and immunopathology of diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice are shared with the human disease. Of the three diabetes-susceptibility genes, Idd-1 -3 and -4 that have been mapped in mice to date, only in the case of Idd-1 is there any evidence for the identity of the gene product: allelic varia… Show more

“…Distal chromosome 2q is an important candidate region for IDDM susceptibility not only because several susceptibility genes have been mapped to this region in Caucasian populations [14,21,25,26], but also because this region is syntenic to murine chromosome 1, where a susceptibility gene for IDDM was mapped in the NOD mouse [22,23]. Recently, Morahan et al [21] mapped a susceptibility gene for IDDM (IDDM13) to the D2S137±D2S164 interval on chromosome 2q.…”

“…This region is an important candidate region for IDDM susceptibility not only because susceptibility genes have been mapped to this region in Caucasian populations, but also because this region is syntenic to murine chromosome 1 where a susceptibility gene for IDDM (Idd5) was mapped in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse [22,23]. To study the contribution of this region to IDDM susceptibility further and to narrow the region for subsequent positional cloning of susceptibility genes, we have studied the association of distal chromosome 2q with IDDM in the genetically distinct Japanese population.…”

“…[139][140][141] It is important in this regard that a single peak near the D2S1391 marker, with a LOD score of 2.62, was reported in the study by Cox et al 21 Part of this region is homologous to the region of mouse chromosome 1 containing the murine T1D susceptibility locus, idd5, in the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse. 142,143 A number of genes have been proposed and investigated as candidate genes for the IDDM7 region. These include genes of the interleukin-1 gene cluster (ie IL1R1, [144][145][146] IL1B, 130,147,148 and IL1RN 130,149 ) HOXD8, 150 GAD1, 151 GALNT3, 141 and NEUROD.…”

“…This region is homologous to that on proximal mouse chromosome 1 where the Idd5 T1D gene was subsequently identified in diabetesprone NOD mice [66], and contains the disease candidate genes CTLA4 and CD28 that encode receptors on T cells involved in control of T cell activation. CTLA4 (at 2q33) was considered a strong candidate because it mediates T cell apoptosis and negatively regulates T cell activation [67].…”
