We have characterized the peripheral B cell repertoire in T cell-mediated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDMM) and in B cell-mediated autoimmune idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (AITP). The VH6-containing repertoire in adult patients with IDDM or AITP and healthy control subjects was investigated by PCR amplification using VH6- and JH-specific primers. Nucleotide sequence analysis of VH6-D-JH...
