We determined the prevalence of 24 antigens controlled by the HLA-A and B loci in twenty patients with juvenile diabetes mellitus (JDM), in twenty patients with coeliac disease (CD), and in eight patients with both of these diseases. The prevalence of HLA-B8 was increased in JDM chi2 = 12.52, p = 0.00040) and in CD (chi2 = 26.47, p less than 0.000001) as compared to 900 controls. There was only a modest increase of Bw15 in JDM (chi2 = 8.86, p = 0.0029) and in patients with both diseases (chi2 = 2.72). The observed prevalence of phenotype HLA-B8, Bw15 was enhanced in JDM (chi2 = 16.03, p = 0;000063) and in patients with both JDM and CD (chi2 = 24.48, p = 0.00000074) as compared with controls. In the latter group the observed value was 2.2 fold to that expected. In family studies the children having both B8 and Bw15 were more disposed to develop diabetes than siblings with only one of these antigens. In conclusion, the inherited susceptibility to develop juvenile diabetes is markedly associated with HLA-B8 and slightly with HLA-Bw15, and that of coeliac disease with HLA-B8 in Finnish paediatric patients. The presence of both B8 and Bw15 simultaneously increases the susceptibility to have both JDM and CD.

Complete HLA and Bf typing of 18 families with juvenile diabetes mellitus (J.D.M.) showed that of 68 children, 9 bore recombinant haplotypes (13%). This frequency is significantly higher than the currently accepted 1.6% for intra-HLA recombinations with a p of 1.3 X 10(6) (binomial expansion) and may be related to the J.D.M. gene itself. Five of the nine crossovers were between HLA-A and B, and four between HLA-B and D. In one informative A/B recombination, Bf segregated with the HLA-B-D segment while in another two, it segregated in cis with HLA-A. This suggests the existence of two genetic sequences within the HLA region, one with Bf on the A site and a second one with Bf on the D site.

HLA-A and B antigens were determined in 112 patients with insulin-dependent juvenile onset diabetes mellitus, who could be subdivided into "non" and "high responder" to insulin. The data revealed a trend of an association of these diabetes subgroups with only one of the diabetes-associated antigens HLA-B8 and HLA-BW15 and indicated the existence of at least two different genetic constellations for susceptibility to juvenile diabetes mellitus. One form with a strong immune-response to insulin seemed to be associated with HLA-BW 15 and the other form without humoral immunoreactivity to insulin seemed to be associated with the presence of HLA-B8 and the absence of HLA-B7.

To investigate whether cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection may be related to islet cell antibodies (ICA) production and/or to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) development, we have analyzed the prevalence of anti-CMV, IgM, and IgG antibodies and of ICA in 80 healthy siblings of IDDM patients (HSIDDP) and in 60 control subjects with negative familiar anamnesis of IDDM. HSIDDP and controls were also typed for HLA-A-B-C and DR antigens. IgM and IgG anti-CMV were detected by an ELISA method, whereas the ICA assay was performed by standard indirect immunofluorescence on 5-microns unfixed sections of human pancreas. HLA-A-B and C antigens were studied by standard microlymphocytotoxicity; DR antigens were also studied by a standard microlymphocytotoxicity on a B-enriched lymphocyte population. Our results indicate a significant association (P less than 0.0001) between high titers of anti-CMV IgG antibodies and ICA in HSDIDDP, whereas no correlation was found between the presence of any HLA-A-B-C and DR antigens and the prevalence of anti-CMV IgM and IgG antibodies and/or ICA. Thus, these data may support the hypothesis that a chronic CMV infection may be associated with ICA production whereas other factors seem to be needed for the complete development of type 1 diabetes.

54 normal Caucasian families and 169 families in whom at least one child had type I diabetes (IDDM) were genotyped for HLA-A, B, C, DR and for the complement factors Bf and C4. The paternal and maternal transmission of the different alleles and of haplotypes and complotypes in linkage desequilibrium have been analysed. No distortion of the paternal transmission has been observed in the offspring of the two series of families. On the contrary, a distortion of the maternal segregation of the silent alleles at the complement factor C4A and B locus was found: mothers transmitted C4AQ0 more often than expected to their male offspring (p less than 0.04 in normal families, p less than 0.001 in IDDM families) while they transmitted C4BQ0 in excess to their female offspring (p less than 0.01 and p less than 0.03 in normal and IDDM families, respectively).

Thirty-one Ethiopian insulin-dependent (or type I) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients and thirty-three healthy controls from the same ethnic background were typed for HLA-A, B, C, DR and DQ specificities. The frequencies of both DR3 and DR4 were significantly increased among IDDM patients (resp. p = 0.02, p = 0.01), confirming results in other populations. In contrast to observations in Caucasians, no significant negative association was found with TA10, a newly recognized DQ specificity, at least in the population studied here, whereas DQwl was more frequently observed among healthy controls (p = 0.01). Although this latter difference does not retain statistical significance after correction for the number of comparisons made, these findings may support previous results suggesting the existence of IDDM susceptibility genes associated with DR3 and DR4 and of IDDM resistance genes associated with DQ antigens.

After the death of a 12-year old girl with newly discovered insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, we used monoclonal antibodies in an effort to identify the cells invading the pancreas. The majority of infiltrating lymphocytes were of the T cytotoxic/suppressor phenotype, but other T-cell subpopulations were present. Some of the T cells were "activated" (positive for HLA-DR antigen, and the interleukin-2 receptor). Immunocytes bearing IgG were scattered in the gland, and complement-fixing IgG antibodies were deposited in some islets. Increased expression of Class I (HLA-A, B, and C) molecules was observed in the affected islet cells, and in damaged islets showing scant lymphocytic infiltration, some beta cells (still producing insulin), but not glucagon or somatostatin cells, were HLA-DR positive. The capillary endothelium was markedly dilated and strongly HLA-DR positive. These findings may contribute to an understanding of the sequence of events leading to the destruction of beta cells in classic Type I diabetes mellitus.

We studied HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DR antigens in 45 patients (from among 34 families), aged 10.2-60 yr, with polyglandular autoimmune disease type I (APG I) and in other family members. HLA-A28 was more frequent in the patients (25%) than in unaffected siblings (16%; P less than 0.05) or in normal Finnish subjects (8.8%; P less than 0.005, corrected P less than 0.2). Compared with the normal subjects, HLA-A28 was more frequent in the patients with hypoparathyroidism (31%; P less than 0.001, corrected P less than 0.04), adrenocortical failure (27%; P less than 0.01), insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM; 66%; P less than 0.01), keratopathy (53%; P less than 0.001, corrected P less than 0.04), and alopecia (40%; P less than 0.001, corrected P less than 0.04), but not in the patients with ovarian failure (9%; P = NS). HLA-A28 was more frequent in the patients with hypoparathyroidism (31%) than in APG I patients without it (13%; P less than 0.005, corrected P less than 0.2). It was also more frequent in the patients with IDDM (66%) than in those without it (21%; P less than 0.05). HLA-A3 was more frequent in the patients with ovarian failure (82%) than in APG I patients with normal ovarian function (22%; P less than 0.025) and in normal subjects (45.5%; P less than 0.05). HLA-A9 was less frequent in the patients with ovarian failure (0%) than in those with normal ovarian function (55%; P less than 0.005, corrected P less than 0.2), and it was less frequent (P less than 0.025) in the patients with adrenocortical failure than in those with normal adrenal function. No association was found with any single DR antigen, but of 4 DR-typed IDDM patients, 3 were DR3 or DR4 positive (P = NS). The occurrence of adrenocortical failure, but not hypoparathyroidism, was familial and associated with HLA haploidentity among sets of affected siblings.

HLA-A,B,C, and DR frequencies have been determined in 34 Coloured Martinican IDDM patients to establish the HLA and IDDM associations. HLA A3, B15, B18, Cw3 and DR4 antigens associations with IDDM are confirmed by this study. We found an increase of B21 similar to that found in Asiatic Indians. As in some African Black populations and in Cape coloured people, A1, B8, and DR3 are not increased in our population. We should point out that our patients' ages of onset were low, and that some studies have found DR4 association in young patients and DR3 in older ones. The protective role of DR2 is confirmed here. B35 and Cw4 negative associations have been found. We have observed that the antigens associated with IDDM are decreased in our control population, except DR4, and that the negative associated DR/ and Cw4 antigens are increased compared to the Continental French population. This corresponds with the low IDDM incidence in Blacks and Coloured people.

To investigate the possible coinheritance of autoimmune diseases that are associated with the same HLA antigen, we studied 70 families in which at least two siblings had either type I diabetes mellitus (IDDM), autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), or a combination of these diseases. HLA-A, B, and C typing was performed on all affected sibs in one generation or more. First, we estimated by sib-pair analysis the disease allele frequency (pD) and the mode of inheritance for each disease. According to the method of ascertainment entered into the analysis, the pD for ATD ranged from .120 to .180, for an additive (dominant) mode of inheritance. For RA, the pD ranged from .254 to .341, also for additive inheritance, although recessive inheritance could not be excluded. For IDDM, the pD ranged from .336 to .337 for recessive inheritance; additive inheritance was rejected. Second, we examined the distribution of shared parental haplotypes in pairs of siblings that were discordant for their autoimmune diseases. The results suggested that the same haplotype may predispose to both IDDM and ATD, or IDDM and RA, but not to both RA and ATD. Analysis of pedigrees supported this hypothesis. In 16 families typed for HLA-DR also, the haplotype predisposing to both IDDM and ATD was assigned from pedigree information to DR3 (44%), DR4 (39%), or DR5, DR6, or DR7 (5.5% each). In some families, these haplotypes segregated over several generations with ATD only (either clinical or subclinical), suggesting that in such families, ATD was a marker for a susceptibility to IDDM. In several families, an IDDM haplotype segregated with RA but not with ATD. This suggests that ATD- and RA-associated susceptibilities to IDDM may be biologically different and thus independently increase the risk of IDDM.
