To identify the profile of anti-pancreas autoantibodies and elucidate the HLA DRB1, DQB1 polymorphism in Tunisian first-degree relatives of patients with type 1 diabetes, we recruited 96 relatives from 21 families with at least one diabetic child. Islet cell antibodies (ICA) were detected by immunofluorescence on monkey pancreas; glutamate decarboxylase (GADA), IA2 (IA2-A) and insulin (IAA) antibodies were measured by RIA. HLA class II DRB1 and DQB1 alleles were typed by PCR-SSP. ICA, GADA, IA2-A and IAA were found in respectively 11.5, 4.2, 5.2 and 8.3% of relatives. Twenty-two out of 96 had at least one antibody and 20 out of these 22 had a susceptibility allele (DRB1*03, DRB1*04, DQB1*02 or DQB1*0302) with or without protective allele (DRB1*11, DRB1*13, DRB1*15 or DQB1*06). All of the 5 relatives having 2 autoantibodies or more carried the DRB1*04-DQB1*0302 susceptible haplotype. In conclusion, this observational study confirms in a Tunisian population known epidemiological data and demonstrates the usefulness of follow-up to determine the predictive value of studied markers.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays

D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
