Zusammenfassung

Autoantibodies to pancreatic beta cell proteins are makers of asymptomatic type 1 diabetes. Tetraspanin 7 is a 38 kDa beta cell glycoprotein that is a candidate target of GLIMA autoantibodies. The aim was to determine whether tetraspanin 7 is a novel autoantibody in early type 1 diabetes. Full length and external domain fragments of tetraspanin 7 were expressed as luciferase-tagged fusion proteins, and used in immunoprecipitation assays to measure autoantibodies in samples from 363 patients with type 1 diabetes at onset of disease, 503 beta cell autoantibody negative first degree relatives of patients, and 212 r…
