Abstract:
:Type 1 diabetes is the result of an ongoing autoimmune response to specific proteins expressed by the insulin producing beta cells. Recently, a number of beta cell autoantigens have been identified. However, their role in mediating the diabetogenic response is not known. Here we assess the relative importance of a panel of beta cell autoantigens in the disease process. The approach was to inhibit T cell proliferation to a given autoantigen by either i.t. or i.v. injections, and then determine the effect this had on the diabetogenic response. We show that administering murine glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) to 3-week-old NOD females can reduce the frequency of insulitis and prevent the onset of diabetes. In contrast, carboxypeptidase H or peripherin do not induce a similar protective effect, suggesting that GAD has a critical role in the diabetogenic response. These results also suggest that GAD may provide a useful target for antigen-specific immunotherapy.
