Abstract excerpt
Type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent) is a multifactorial disease with polygenic susceptibility. The major genetic component (IDDM1) resides within the HLA region, but several non-HLA loci have been implicated in the genetic susceptibility. In the present study, we have analysed two such loci, IDDM12 (CTLA4) on 2q33 and IDDM13 on 2q34, in Danish (n = 254) and Spanish (n = 39) type 1 diabetic multiplex families. No...
