62 9073547 Activation of CD8+ T lymphocytes in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
63 9073547 Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease directed against the insulin-secreting beta cells of the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas.
64 9073547 We have previously shown that in organ-specific autoimmune diseases, Graves' disease (GD), and IDDM, the antigen that is specific for each of these disorders (i.e., TSH receptor for GD, glutamic acid decarboxylase-65 (GAD65) for IDDM) does not activate the disease-specific CD8+ cells as fully as CD8+ cells from normal persons.
65 9073547 In order to identify the specific antigen responsible for triggering or maintaining autoimmunity in patients afflicted with the disease, we have studied the effects of islet (beta) cell-specific antigens GAD65, insulin, pancreatic antigen (P69), T cell epitope 69 (Tep69), and a milk-derived bovine serum albumin (BSA)-peptide-ABBOS (pre-BSA positions 157-169) on the activation of CD8+ T lymphocytes in IDDM patients.
66 9073547 We compared the patterns of T cells activation with those mediated by an irrelevant peptide antigen, P348 (amino-terminal region of human cardiac myosin light chain-1), and also tetanus toxoid.
67 9073547 We also studied the responses of CD8+ T lymphocytes to these IDDM-relevant and -irrelevant antigens in Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients (HT), rheumatoid arthritis patients (RA), and normal control subjects (N) to compare the pattern of responses in the other autoimmune diseases.
68 9073547 When the response of CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients to each of the IDDM-relevant antigens was compared to that of the irrelevant antigen, only GAD65 and ABBOS showed a significantly reduced activation compared to P348 and tetanus toxoid.
69 9073547 Moreover, CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients showed a significantly lower activation by GAD65 than those from N, HT, and RA.
70 9073547 In conclusion, our data suggest that CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients but not those from N, HT, and RA groups have specifically reduced potential for activation in response to GAD65 but not to insulin, P69, and Tep69, whereas ABBOS exerts a less well-defined reductive effect on the activation of CD8+ lymphocytes of IDDM patients.
71 9073547 Since CD8+ cells have been shown to contain suppressor activity, our data support the notion that a disease-specific defect in GAD65 autoantigenic induction of suppressor T lymphocytes may be important in the pathogenesis of IDDM.

122 9073547 Activation of CD8+ T lymphocytes in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
123 9073547 Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease directed against the insulin-secreting beta cells of the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas.
124 9073547 We have previously shown that in organ-specific autoimmune diseases, Graves' disease (GD), and IDDM, the antigen that is specific for each of these disorders (i.e., TSH receptor for GD, glutamic acid decarboxylase-65 (GAD65) for IDDM) does not activate the disease-specific CD8+ cells as fully as CD8+ cells from normal persons.
125 9073547 In order to identify the specific antigen responsible for triggering or maintaining autoimmunity in patients afflicted with the disease, we have studied the effects of islet (beta) cell-specific antigens GAD65, insulin, pancreatic antigen (P69), T cell epitope 69 (Tep69), and a milk-derived bovine serum albumin (BSA)-peptide-ABBOS (pre-BSA positions 157-169) on the activation of CD8+ T lymphocytes in IDDM patients.
126 9073547 We compared the patterns of T cells activation with those mediated by an irrelevant peptide antigen, P348 (amino-terminal region of human cardiac myosin light chain-1), and also tetanus toxoid.
127 9073547 We also studied the responses of CD8+ T lymphocytes to these IDDM-relevant and -irrelevant antigens in Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients (HT), rheumatoid arthritis patients (RA), and normal control subjects (N) to compare the pattern of responses in the other autoimmune diseases.
128 9073547 When the response of CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients to each of the IDDM-relevant antigens was compared to that of the irrelevant antigen, only GAD65 and ABBOS showed a significantly reduced activation compared to P348 and tetanus toxoid.
129 9073547 Moreover, CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients showed a significantly lower activation by GAD65 than those from N, HT, and RA.
130 9073547 In conclusion, our data suggest that CD8+ T lymphocytes of IDDM patients but not those from N, HT, and RA groups have specifically reduced potential for activation in response to GAD65 but not to insulin, P69, and Tep69, whereas ABBOS exerts a less well-defined reductive effect on the activation of CD8+ lymphocytes of IDDM patients.
131 9073547 Since CD8+ cells have been shown to contain suppressor activity, our data support the notion that a disease-specific defect in GAD65 autoantigenic induction of suppressor T lymphocytes may be important in the pathogenesis of IDDM.

170 9645990 Molecular epidemiology of enteroviruses with special reference to their potential role in the etiology of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
171 9878081 Since autoimmune responses to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) are up-regulated in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), in this study GAD67-specific antibody, T cell proliferation and lymphokine production patterns were analysed in the adjuvant-treated mice to characterize the regulatory mechanisms underlying the protection.
172 9878081 Upon in vitro stimulation with GAD67, draining lymph node and spleen cells from CFA-immunized NOD mice or syngeneic islet-grafted and BCG-protected NOD mice produced much more IL-4, whereas there was no significant change in IFN-gamma production.
173 10330294 To evaluate the potential of this approach for treatment of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), we have designed a cyclic peptide vaccine, DiavaX, from the third hypervariable region of the beta-chain of the NOD mouse MHC class II I-Ag7.
174 10403922 The aim was to evaluate the level of responsiveness in two neighbouring countries with different poliovirus immunization practices and striking differences in the incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), a disease in which early enterovirus infections are an aetiological risk factor.

185 11145720 Numerous immunostimulatory protocols inhibit the development of T cell-mediated autoimmune insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model.
186 11145720 Many of these protocols, including treatment with the nonspecific immunostimulatory agents CFA or bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, have been reported to mediate protection by skewing the pattern of cytokines produced by pancreatic beta-cell autoreactive T cells from a Th1 (IFN-gamma) to a Th2 (IL-4 and IL-10) profile.
187 11145720 To partially address this issue we produced NOD mice genetically deficient in IFN-gamma, IL-4, or IL-10.
188 11145720 Additional experiments using these mice confirmed that CFA- or BCG-elicited diabetes protection is associated with a decreased IFN-gamma to IL-4 mRNA ratio within T cell-infiltrated pancreatic islets, but this is a secondary consequence rather than the cause of disease resistance.
189 11145720 Unexpectedly, we also found that the ability of BCG and, to a lesser extent, CFA to inhibit IDDM development in standard NOD mice is actually dependent upon the presence of the Th1 cytokine, IFN-gamma.

195 11160264 In this study, we have investigated the use of plasmid DNA (pDNA) vaccination to elicit Th2 effector cell function in an Ag-specific manner and in turn prevent insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice. pDNA recombinants were engineered encoding a secreted fusion protein consisting of a fragment of glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) linked to IgGFc, and IL-4.

252 12887108 The strong associations between poor vitamin D nutrition, particular VDR alleles, and susceptibility to chronic mycobacterial infections, together with evidence that 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 served as a vaccine adjuvant enhancing antibody-mediated immunity, suggest a model wherein high levels of 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3-liganded VDR transcriptional activity may promote the CD4+ T helper 2 (Th2) cell-mediated and mucosal antibody responses to cutaneous antigens in vivo.
253 12887108 Studies done in animal models of multiple sclerosis (MS), insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and transplantation support a model wherein the 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 may augment the function of suppressor T cells that maintain self tolerance to organ-specific self antigens.
