Results from a recent study suggested that polymorphisms within the HLA class II genes LMP2 and LMP7 were associated with the susceptibility for developing IDDM, and that this association could not be explained by linkage disequilibrium to HLA-DR or -DQ genes. We typed 285 IDDM patients and 337 HLA-DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 genotypically matched control subjects from an ethnically homogeneous population for both the G/T polymorphism in intron 6 of the LMP7 gene and the Arg-His polymorphism in the LMP2 gene. In addition, we typed IDDM families in which at least one parent was homozygous for a DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 haplotype and performed a transmission/disequilibrium test of these LMP polymorphisms. Our data suggest that none of these LMP2 or LMP7 polymorphisms are independently associated with IDDM susceptibility, in contrast to what has been previously reported by others. Further, our results suggest that one partial explanation for the previously reported independent association between IDDM and these LMP polymorphisms may have been that patients and control subjects were not matched for DRB1*04 subtypes. Our results emphasize the need for a complete matching for DRB1, DQA1, and DQB1 alleles between patients and control subjects when attempting to detect independent effects of other polymorphisms in the HLA complex on IDDM susceptibility or protection.

Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) HLA class II DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 data from four populations (Norwegian, Sardinian, Mexican American, and Taiwanese) have been analyzed to detect the amino acids involved in the disease process. The combination of sites DRB1#67 and 86; DQA1#47; and DQB1#9, 26, 57, and 70 predicts the IDDM component in these four populations, when the results and criteria of the haplotype method for amino acids, developed in the companion paper in this issue of the Journal, are used. The following sites, either individually, or in various combinations, previously have been suggested as IDDM components: DRB1#57, 70, 71, and 86; DQA1#52; and DQB1#13, 45, and 57 (DQB1#13 and 45 correlates 100% with DQB1#9 and 26). We propose that DQA1#47 is a better predictor of IDDM than is the previously suggested DQA1#52, and we add DRB1#67 and DQB1#70 to the HLA DR-DQ IDDM amino acids. We do not claim to have identified all HLA DR-DQ amino acids-or highly correlated sites-involved in IDDM. The frequencies and predisposing/protective effects of the haplotypes defined by these seven sites have been compared, and the effects on IDDM are consistent across the populations. The strongest susceptible effects came from haplotypes DRB1 *0301/DQA1 *0501/ DQB1*0201 and DRB1*0401-5-7-8/DQA1*0301/ DQB1*0302. The number of strong protective haplotypes observed was larger than the number of susceptible ones; some of the predisposing haplotypes were present in only one or two populations. Although the sites under consideration do not necessarily have a functional involvement in IDDM, they should be highly associated with such sites and should prove to be useful in risk assessment.

HLA-DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1 alleles have been determined in 42 families with one IDDM proband and 64 healthy controls, by oligotyping (PCR-SSO) using primers and probes from the XI International Histocompatibility Workshop. A positive DRB1*03 and DRB1*04 association with the disease was observed, whereas DRB1*11 and DRB1*07 showed negative association but 19% of patients carried DRB1 alleles different to DRB1*03 or *04. When single alleles were considered, DQA1*03 showed the strongest association with susceptibility to the disease (RR = 8.2, Pc = 0.00001) but this association was outgrown by 2 and 3 allele combinations, with genotype DRB1*04-DQA1*03-DQB1*0302/DRB1*03- DQA1*0501- DQB1*0201 showing the strongest association (RR = 28, Pc = 0.002). Application of the relative predispositional effect (RPE) method to our data, revealed a further susceptibility risk provided by the DRB1*13-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0604 haplotype once DR3 and DR4 haplotypes were removed. When DQA1-DQB1 genotypes were analysed for presence of Arg 52 (DQ alpha) and absence of Asp 57 (DQ beta), genotypes SS/SS were found significantly increased in diabetics. Interestingly, one of the strongest associations with the disease was observed with the DQA1*03-DQB1*0201 combination encoded mainly by genes in trans (RR = 11.7 Pc = 0.00004). These observations and their comparison with DR-DQ haplotypes in more homogeneous ethnic groups support the stronger influence of the DQ molecule rather than the individual DR or DQ alleles in the susceptibility to IDDM. They also emphasize the need for detailed HLA haplotype studies in non-Caucasian and ethnically mixed populations to gain further insight into the nature of genetic and environmental factors contribution to autoimmunity.

Type I diabetes is an autoimmune and a polygenic disease, in which MHC-class II genes contribute to 48% of the disease. The aim of the present study, is to provide a guideline to understanding the molecular association of these genes, through the immunogenetic analysis of 3 Latin american mestizo populations. We included 606 individuals, 349 patients with DMDI and 257 healthy controls coming from 3 geographical areas: Mexico City, Mexico; Caracas, Venezuela and Medellin, Colombia. The results clearly indicate that in mestizo groups, the diabetogenic haplotypes are from mediterranean ancestry, while protection is due to Amerindian genes. It was demonstrated that the relevant sequences for IDDM expression are located to DRB1 and DQB1 loci with a minimal contribution of DQA1 residues. The sequences determining peptide recognition and the induction of TH1 cells mediating the cellular autoimmune response are in positions DRB1-57 and 74 (an aspartic acid and a glutamic acid respectively, confer protection), modulated by D-57 in the DQ, 8 chain. These data show that DRB1-DQB1 haplotypes are central for IDDM expression and open new pathways for the disease management.

The association of HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 genes with IDDM in Koreans was assessed using 115 IDDM patients and 140 nondiabetic controls. DQB1*0201 is the only DQB1 allele positively associated with IDDM while DQB*0602, *0601 and *0301 are negatively associated. Three DRB1 alleles (DRB1*0301, DRB1*0407 and DRB1*0901) are positively associated while four DR allele groups (DRB1*15, DRB1*12, DRB1*10 and DRB1*14) are negatively associated. However, Haplotype analyses indicated that DQB1*0302, DRB1*0405 and DRB1*0401 may confer susceptibility because the DRB1*0405-DQB*0302 and DRB1*0401-DQB1*0302 haplotypes are positively associated with the disease. The lack of association in Koreans with the DQB1*0302 allele, which appears predisposing in studies of non-Orientals, is due to its strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the protective DRB1*0403 and *0406 alleles, while the lack of association with DRB1*0405 is because of its strong LD with the protective DQB1*0401 allele. Nine DR/DQ genotypes confer significantly increased risk to IDDM. Seven of the nine genotypes (DR3/4s, DR1/4s, DR4s/13, DR4s/8, DR4s/7, DR9/13 and DR3/9) were also found to be at high risk to IDDM in other populations, while the two others (DR1/9 and DR9/9) are only found in Koreans. Surprisingly, DR4/4 homozygotes are not associated with high risk to IDDM in Koreans. This observation can be explained by the high frequency of protective DR4 subtypes and the protective DQ alleles (0301 and 0401) associated with the susceptible DR4 alleles. Our analyses indicate that the counterbalancing act between susceptible DRB1 and protective DQB1, and vice versa, that has already been observed in Chinese and Japanese, is the major factor responsible for the low incidence of diabetes in Koreans.

Of 957 patients with type 1 diabetes without known Addison's disease 1.6% (n = 15) were positive for 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies. Among DQ8/DQ2 heterozygous patients, the percentage expressing 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies was 5% (10 of 208) vs. less than 0.5% of patients with neither DQ8 nor DQ2. Three of the diabetic patients found to have 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies on screening were subsequently diagnosed with Addison's disease. Overall, the genotype DQ8/DQ2, consisting of DRB1*0404/DQ8 with DRB1*0301/DQ2, was present in 14 of 21 patients with Addison's disease (8 of 12 with diabetes and 6 of 9 without diabetes or antiislet autoantibodies) vs. 0.7% of the general population (109 of 15,547; P < 10(-6)) and 11% of patients with DM without Addison's disease (62 of 578; P < 10(-6)). Among patients with diabetes with DQ8, Addison's disease was strongly associated with the specific DRB1 subtype, DRB1*0404 (8 of 9 patients from 8 families, in contrast to only 109 of 408 DQ8 DM patients with diabetes without Addison's disease having DRB1*0404; P < 0.001). Among 21-hydroxylase autoantibody-positive DQ8 patients, 80% with DRB1*0404 (12 of 15) had Addison's disease, in contrast to 1 of 10 autoantibody-positive patients with DRB1*0401 or DRB1*0402 (P < 0.001). We conclude that patients with DRB1*0404 and 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies are at high risk for Addison's disease. Patients with DRB1*0401 and DRB1*0402 have more limited progression to Addison's disease despite the presence of 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies.

Major genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes mellitus maps to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region on chromosome 6p. During evolution, endogenous retroviral long terminal repeats (LTR) have been integrated at several sites within this region. We analyzed the presence of a solitary HERV-K LTR in the HLA DQ region (DQ-LTR3) and its linkage to DRB1, DQA1, and DQB1 haplotypes derived from 246 German and Belgian families with a patient suffering from type 1 diabetes mellitus. Segregation analysis of 984 HLA DQA1/B1 haplotypes showed that DQ-LTR3 is linked to distinct DQA1 and DQB1 haplotypes but is absent in others. The presence of DQ-LTR3 on HLA DQB1*0302 haplotypes was preferentially transmitted to patients from heterozygous parents (82%; P < 10(-6)), in contrast to only 2 of 7 DQB1*0302 haplotypes without DQ-LTR3. Also, the extended HLA DRB1*0401, DQB1*0302 DQ-LTR3-positive haplotypes were preferentially transmitted (84%; P < 10(-6)) compared with 1 of 6 DR-DQ matched DQ-LTR3 negative haplotypes. DQ-LTR3 is missing on most DQB1*0201 haplotypes, and those LTR3 negative haplotypes were also preferentially transmitted to patients (80%; P < 10(-6)), whereas DQB1*0201 DQ-LTR3-positive haplotypes were less often transmitted to patients (36%). Other DQA1/B1 haplotypes did not differ for DQ-LTR3 between transmitted and nontransmitted haplotypes. Thus, the presence of DQLTR3 on HLA DQB1*0302 and its absence on DQB1*0201 haplotypes are independent genetic risk markers for type 1 diabetes.

In this study, we report type 1 diabetes age-of-onset association with HLA class II (DRB1, DQB1, and DPB1) and class I (A) genes in 222 multiplex families from the Human Biological Data Interchange. Linear regression showed a small (R2 = 0.26) but significant correlation in the ages of onset among sib pairs. A strong association in age of onset between members of sib pairs was observed when the analysis was performed using contingency tables that split sibs into three age-at-onset ranges (0-10, 11-20, and 21-36 years). The association is strongest for sib pairs that share both haplotypes and is nonsignificant for sib pairs that do not share any DR-DQ haplotypes. A goodness-of-fit test revealed that DR-DQ haplotype sharing cannot account for all the association in age of onset among sib pairs. The age-of-onset distribution of DR-DQ haplotypes is affected by the DPB1 and A alleles present. The strongest associations were found with the A locus: DR3/DR4 genotype frequency decreases with age of onset in this data set only among A*0101- individuals, and A*2402 is strongly associated with younger age of onset in many DR-DQ haplotypes.

We have recently shown that an as yet unidentified gene within or in the vicinity of the HLA complex, in linkage disequilibrium with microsatellite D6S2223, modifies the risk to develop type 1 diabetes independently of HLA-DR and -DQ genes. This microsatellite is located 2.5 Mb telomeric to HLA-F and particular alleles at this microsatellite modifies the risk encoded by the high-risk DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 (hereafter called DR3) haplotype. Coeliac disease and type 1 diabetes share some susceptibility HLA class II haplotypes, in Scandinavia particularly the DR3 haplotype. We therefore investigated whether the marker D6S2223 might also be associated with coeliac disease. In order to keep the contributions from the DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 genes constant (i.e., eliminate the effects of linkage disequilibrium to disease associated DR and/or DQ alleles), we only used cases and controls being homozygous for DR3. We found the frequency of allele 3 at D6S2223 to be reduced among patients with coeliac disease compared to controls, to a similar extent as seen in type 1 diabetes, which could not be explained by a different distribution of HLA-B alleles (as ascertained by typing for the MIB microsatellite). This negatively associated allele 3 at D6S2223 occurred in a homozygous combination at a significantly lower frequency among patients than controls. Thus, allele 3 at D6S2223 on DR3 haplotypes is associated with reduced susceptibility for development of both type 1 diabetes and coeliac disease. This suggests that a gene(s) in the vicinity of D6S2223 is involved in the pathogenesis of both of these immune-mediated diseases.

With a view to establishing an accurate evaluation of the genetic predisposition to insulin-dependent type I diabetes (IDDM), we have built a model based on the characteristics of the relevant pockets of HLA-DR and -DQ molecules. Three independent populations were investigated. Group I and group II were Caucasoids, while group III was Japanese, including a total of 1,166 IDDM patients and 2,391 healthy controls. We formulate the hypothesis that suceptibility to IDDM is not only explained by the absence of Aspartate 57 (negative charge) from pocket 9 of DQB1 (P9DQ), but also by the presence of an electric charge (+/- vs. neutral), generated by residues 70, 71 and 74 in pockets 4 of DRB1 (P4DR) and DQB1 (P4DQ) molecules. The respective weight of each pocket, was evaluated in a multivariate analysis based on the logistic regression method. The 4 components (2 loci and 2 pockets) were systematically analysed in the computer model. It was clearly shown that the structural characteristics of pockets P9DQ-P4DR and, to a lesser degree that of P4DQ, account for IDDM predisposition. On applying the model to the whole international series, it appears that the highest risk concerns individuals with P9DQ non-Asp 57 and both the charged P4 of DRB1 and P4 of DQB1, conferring a 80% prediction of susceptibility. Conversely, P9DQ Asp and neutral P4DR and P4DQ give the lowest risk with a predictive value of 5%. This model of risk susceptibility prediction fits remarkably well with the observed distribution in a worldwide study. It allows a better evaluation of the respective role of HLA-DR and -DQ molecules as a major component of susceptibility to IDDM.
