HLA-DR3 and -DR4 control T-lymphocyte responses to mumps and Coxsackie B4 virus: studies on patients with type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes and healthy subjects. 1985

O Bruserud, and J Jervell, and E Thorsby

To study the relationships between the responses to viral antigens and the HLA-DR3 and -DR4 associations in Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, the frequency of T-lymphocyte proliferating in response to mumps, Coxsackie B4 and varicella-zoster antigens was determined. A decreased frequency was found in T lymphocytes able to respond to mumps or Coxsackie B4 when presented together with DR3, as compared with the frequency of T lymphocytes able to respond to these viruses together with other DR determinants. This was not found for varicella-zoster or purified protein derivative of tuberculin. In contrast, an increased frequency was found in T lymphocytes responding to mumps or Coxsackie B4 together with DR4, compared with other DR determinants. The results were similar in Type 1 diabetic and healthy individuals. The results suggest that elements on the DR3 and DR4 molecules may control T-lymphocyte responses to mumps and Coxsackie B4 viruses.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

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.

D000328 Adult A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available. Adults
D000938 Antigen-Presenting Cells A heterogeneous group of immunocompetent cells that mediate the cellular immune response by processing and presenting antigens to the T-cells. Traditional antigen-presenting cells include MACROPHAGES; DENDRITIC CELLS; LANGERHANS CELLS; and B-LYMPHOCYTES. FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS are not traditional antigen-presenting cells, but because they hold antigen on their cell surface in the form of IMMUNE COMPLEXES for B-cell recognition they are considered so by some authors.
