A group of 100 patients with juvenile diabetes, age at onset 1-15 years (7.1 +/- 3.9), was studied with reference to family history of diabetes (FHD), HLA-types, symptoms at onset of diabetes, and occurrence of partial postinitial remission. No significant relations were seen between HLA-types and FHD. Nor was there any correlation between FHD and age at onset of diabetes, severity of th disease at onset, or occurrence of remission. Patients with a dominant type of inheritance were insulin-dependent to the same extent as those with less pronounced or no known FHD. According to previous results, it is concluded that all children and adolescents with a newly diagnosed diabetes should receive insulin treatment immediately to minimize further loss of B-cell function.

The occurrence of diabetes mellitus and Addison's disease together is discussed by the authors. The female patient described here had diabetes at the age of four; Addison's disease appeared when the patient was 19 years old. Four years prior to the appearance of Addison's disease, an ophthalmoscopic examination revealed microaneurysms. The examination of the fundus of the eye was negative when Addison's disease, was diagnosed. An HLA-B8 antigen positivity was established. The authors discussed the pathogenetic relationship of HLA-B8 antigen positivity, diabetes mellitus, and Addison's disease.

Three persons in a kindred of 43 had variable expression of a syndrome consisting of immunoglobulin A deficiency, diabetes mellitus, malabsorption, and a common HLA haplotype. Findings from the proband included life-threatening malabsorption; idiopathic intestinal mucosal atrophy with infalmmation; IgA deficiency and antibodies to multiple endocrine organs; insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; and the major histocomptability antigens HLA-A2, B8, and DW3. In addition to the described syndrome other conditions present in the family include Graves' disease, vitiligo, hypocomplementemia, rheumatic fever, multiple sclerosis, and a high frequency of antibodies to endocrine tissue. Since Graves' disease, diabetes mellitus, and idiopathic Addison's disease have all been described in association with HLS-B8 and DW3, we believe that the occurrence of these diseases in this family suggests that a single immune response gene or gene complex is linked with HLA-B8 and DW3.

In a family with maturity-onset type of diabetes mellitus inherited as a dominant, autosomal trait (MODY), the HLA genotypes were compared with the glucose tolerance and the plasma insulin response to oral glucose. In the members with impaired glucose tolerance, the plasma insulin response was of the insulino-tardic type, while those with normal or borderline glucose tolerance had a normal plasma insulin response. HLA tissue typing for A, B, C and D series antigens carried out in 19 of the members showed no association between specific HLA antigens and imparied glucose tolerance. Moreover, when analysing the segregation of the disease and the HLA characters, several recombinants between MODY and HLA would have to be postulated if the gene(s) for this form of diabetes mellitus should be closely linked to the HLA locus.

The present study demonstrated that a decreased frequency of HLA-BW52 was a common characteristic shared by the patients with Graves' disease and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with juvenile onset among Japanese.

HLA-B8 and HLA-Bw15, two antigens associated with juvenile diabetes mellitus in Caucasians of North Europe, have a very low frequency in Sardinian population, who nevertheless have a high frequency of diabetes. The association between diabetes and HLA in Sardinian population has therefore been investigated in 60 patients with diabetes, mellitus (32 with juvenile diabetes and 28 with maturity onset diabetes) and 96 normal, unrelated random controls. No disturbance of HLA distributions was found in maturity onset diabetes, but the frequencies of B8 and Bw35 were increased among juvenile diabetics (18.7 percent and 28.1 percent respectively, compared with 2.0 and 11.4 percent in healthy controls). B18 antigen frequency was also increased, although not significantly, in juvenile diabetes mellitus (65.6 percent compared with 50 percent in controls). In contrast the frequency of HLA-Bw15 in two groups of diabetics differed little from that of controls.

HLA haplotypes in a kindred with a maturity-onset type of hyperglycemia in the young (MOHY) were studied. All diabetics had mild hyperglycemia of early onset, and the inheritance pattern suggested an autosomal dominant trait. Eight of 11 subjects with hyperglycemia shared haplotype A3, Bw15. When only this haplotype was considered, there appeared to be a significant association with hyperglycemia chi2 = 6.36). However, since both haplotypes in the proband could be associated with hyperglycemia (both proband's parents had hyperglycemia), the data for both haplotypes were combined, and analysis for an association between both haplotypes and hyperglycemia was not significant (chi2 = 2.53). Linkage between a diabetes gene causing MOHY and the HLA, evaluated by lod score analysis, was suggested, but the values were not significant.

The incidence of HLA antigens B8, BW15, DW3 and DW4 was found to be significantly increased in 99 patients with growth onset, insulin-dependent diabetes of more than 15 years duration. Different degrees of retinopathy were seen in 75% of the patients. No significant correlation between the presence of specific HLA alleles and the stage of retinopathy was found. We have discussed the possibility that all patients who develop diabetes have identical disease-predisposing genes, irrespective of their HLA alleles. If this was the case, the HLA phenotype would not determine the risk of developing diabetic retinopathy.

The simultaneous occurrence of HLA B8 and BW15 and B8 antigens is significantly more frequent in diabetic children than in the general population. BW15 alone shows no significant difference but may be considered as a potentiating factor. The relative risk of the manifestation of diabetes in the highest when HLA B8 and BW15 occur simultaneously. In the nearest diabetic relatives of diabetic children the occurrence of B8 and B8 and/or BW15 antigens is significantly more frequent than in the diabetic child population.

Linkage analysis between the major histocompatibility system (HLA) and juvenile, insulin-dependent diabetes, assuming an autosomal recessive mode and 50% penetrance was performed on 21 juvenile, insulin-dependent diabetic multiplex families (two or more diabetics per sibship) with phenotypically normal parents. The total lod score was the highest (3.98) at a recombination fraction of 13%. For a penetrance of 100%, the highest total lod score was 2.92 at a recombination fraction of 18%. These results are compatible with the existence of linkage between an autosomal recessive diabetic gene with 50% penetrance and the HLA in some of the families studied. Our ascertainment strategy would be expected to increase the likelihood of selecting for genetically homogenous diabetes and against sporadic forms of the disease. Thus, our findings may apply only to a small proportion of all cases of juvenile, insulin-dependent diabetes.
