5Type 1 diabetes genes
v
HLA DQ2, DQ8, or both, represents almost 90 of
all type 1 diabetes patients younger than 20
years of age. The risk of DQ2/8 heterozygotes
decreases with increasing age. The protection of
DQ6.2 is attenuated by increasing age and is lost
at about 35 years of age.

v
Class I - INS VNTR -short tandem repeats -
increase the risk by about 2-5 .
v
CTLA-4 - long AT-repeats at the 5 end UTR -
increase the risk by about 2-3.

EFFECTS. HLA HAS THE MAJOR GENETIC EFFECT
- INS VNTR AND OTHER GENETIC FACTORS
CONTRIBUTE. AGE-DEPENDENT EFFECTS OF HLA AND

23WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS?
WASHINGTON PREDICTION STUDY gt 4 500 14 year
olds were screened Follow up 9 years. All 15
children developing diabetes were predicted.
No false negatives. No false positives.

24TYPE 1 DIABETES IS A T-CELL MEDIATED DISEASE
Poor antigen quality has hampered novel
technologies to detect T-cells reactive with
GAD65, proinsulin (PI), and IA-2. The second
T cell IDS workshop reported GAD65 (Diamyd
Medical) generated in insect cells that
stimulate relevant clones and does not inhibit
third-party antigens. A PI preparation
generated in bacteria was free of effects on
proliferation to third-party antigens and low
in endotoxin. These preparations should be
useful to develop robust and sensitive assays
of autoantigen-specific T cells that predict
diseases. Peakman et al. Report of phase II
of the Second International Immunology of
Diabetes Society Workshop for Standardization
of T-cell assays. Diabetes 501749-54, 2001.
25GAD65Ab modulate GAD65 antigen presentation.
- T-cell hybridomas
- DRB10401 restricted
- GAD65 peptide 274-286 dependent
- APC from DRB10401 subjects
- IL-2 release response
- GAD65Ab positive sera from new onset children at
various end-point titers

27ANTIBODY-MEDIATED POTENTIATION OF
ANTIGEN-PRESENTATION.
- GAD65Ab mediated potentiation of antigen
presentation may explain - Preservation of conformation dependent GAD65Ab
before diagnosis.
- Preservation of conformation dependent GAD65Ab
after diagnosis when beta cells are gone. - Acceleration of beta cell destruction by
recruiting new CD4 and CD8 T cells.
28SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
HLA HAS THE MAJOR EFFECT - OTHER GENETIC
FACTORS SUCH AS INS VNTR AND CTLA-4
CONTRIBUTE. MULTIPLE ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS.
GESTATIONAL EFFECTS. EARLY T CELL RESPONSES ARE
KEY TO INITIATION OF BETA CELL AUTOIMMUNITY.
AGE-DEPENDENT EFFECTS OF HLA AND
ON GAD65Ab IAA INS VNTR CONTRIBUTE IA-2Ab.
CHRONIC BETA-CELL AUTOIMMUNITY MAY BE
MAINTAINED BY AUTOANTIBODY-FACILITATED T CELL
RESPONSES.
