These genotypes and those containing DRB1 0401 and DQB1 0302 associated with a younger age at diagnosis in LADA, whereas genotypes containing DRB1 1501 and DQB1 0602 associated with an older age at diagnosis.
Both type 1 diabetes mellitus and LADA were positively associated with the DRB1*04-DQB1*0302 (DR4/DQ8) haplotype (P=0.00001, and P=0.0005, respectively), and negatively associated with the DRB1*11-DQB1*0301 (DR11/DQ7) haplotype (P=0.00006, and P=0.007, respectively) compared with control population.
To compare outcomes of glucagon-stimulated C-peptide tests (GSCTs) in people with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) after a 21-month intervention with either insulin or the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor sitagliptin.
Although patients with LADA had an increased frequency of HLA-DQB1 and PTPN22 risk genotypes and alleles compared with type 2 diabetic subjects, the frequency was significantly lower compared with T1D(>35y) patients.
The AA genotype of rs689, referring to the class I allele in the INS VNTR, as well as the CT/TT genotypes of rs2476601 in the PTPN22 gene, were increased both in type 1 diabetic (P = 3 x 10(-14) and P = 1 x 10(-10), respectively) and LADA (P = 0.001 and P = 0.002) subjects compared with control subjects.
The AA genotype of rs689, referring to the class I allele in the INS VNTR, as well as the CT/TT genotypes of rs2476601 in the PTPN22 gene, were increased both in type 1 diabetic (P = 3 x 10(-14) and P = 1 x 10(-10), respectively) and LADA (P = 0.001 and P = 0.002) subjects compared with control subjects.
Previous studies have shown that the risk for LADA, similarly to type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), is increased in subjects carrying the HLA-DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 and/or HLA-DRB1*04-DQA1*0301-DQB1*0302 haplotypes.
The results in this study suggest that microsatellite polymorphism within the transmembrane region of MIC-A gene is associated with genetic susceptibility to adult-onset of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), MIC-A5.1 allele, corrected P = 0.001, whereas it is not associated with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) in Czech population.
The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the association of common type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) gene variants (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 [PTPN22] rs2476601C/T, insulin [INS] rs689A/T and transcription factor 7-like 2 [TCF7L2] rs7903146C/T) with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA).
The current study aims to test whether Latvians are similar to Caucasians in susceptibility to autoimmune diabetes (T1DM and LADA), with respect to SUMO4M55V.
These results suggest that the G/A mutation at position -1082 of IL-10 promoter gene region might be one of the factors participating to the pathogenesis of LADA diabetes and that identification of cytokine gene polymorphisms might contribute to the characterization of the different types of diabetes mellitus.
The CTLA-4 + 49 A/G polymorphism confers genetic susceptibility to LADA and T1DM, while the CTLA-4 CT60 polymorphism is only associated with T1DM in Chinese population.
Between SPIDDM and LADA some differences are reported in terms of some genetic predispositions including HLA class II and class I genes, vitamin D receptor gene, and CTLA4 genes.
Our aim was to determine (i) the prevalence of HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 genotypes, and (ii) to determine the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha promoter polymorphism at position -308 (the G-->A substitution, designated the TNF2 allele) in patients with type 1 diabetes and with LADA compared with the healthy population.
These results suggest that the IL-18 gene promoter polymorphisms are not associated with adult type 1 diabetes or LADA susceptibility, and according to our findings genes involved in onset and progression of LADA and T1DM are probably different.
Of type 2 diabetes-associated genes, the CC/CT genotypes of rs7961581 (TSPAN8) and the obesity-linked AA/AC genotypes of rs8050136 (FTO) were associated with LADA in general, but mainly in low anti-GAD LADA patients (P = 0.004 and P = 0.004, respectively).
The purpose of this study was to identify killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes, which are associated with susceptibility to and protection against type 1 diabetes in Latvian and Asian Indian patients with LADA.
