56 2577113 TNF-alpha gene polymorphisms: association with type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus.
57 2577113 The localization of TNF genes on the short arm of chromosome 6 between HLA B and the complement genes focused attention to that genetic region which harbors many immunologically relevant genes and is also thought to hold susceptibility genes for a variety of autoimmune diseases that are linked to specific alleles of particular loci in the HLA D region.
58 2577113 Since the recently established HLA-DR-DQ variation accounts only for part of the genetic susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) we searched for genomic variation of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) alpha.
59 2577113 This tight linkage of TNF-alpha alleles with extended haplotypes and the significant increase of heterozygotes in patients could lead to some explanation of the DR3 association with a variety of autoimmune diseases particularly IDDM.

62 2801776 It is well established that there is genetic heterogeneity between a human lymphocyte antigen (HLA)-DR3-associated allele and an HLA-DR4-associated allele in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
63 2801776 These results suggest that thyroid autoimmunity in IDDM is part of the IDDM "syndrome" and is associated with DR3 and DR4 to the same extent that IDDM without thyroid disease is associated with these two antigens.
64 2801776 Thus, although genetic studies are consistent with the heterogeneity between DR3 and DR4 in IDDM, there is no HLA-thyroid disease association to support this heterogeneity.

70 3057885 Removal of DR3 and DR4 reveals an overall protective effect of DR2, predisposing effects of DR1 and DRw8, and a slight protective effect of DR5 and a predisposing effect of DRw6.
71 3057885 The non-DR3, non-DR4 antigens are not independently associated with DR3 and DR4; the largest effect is a deficiency of DR2, followed by excesses of DR1, DRw8, and DRw6, in DR4 individuals, as compared with DR3 individuals.
72 3057885 HLA-B locus distributions on patient haplotypes indicate that only subsets of both DR3 and DR4 are predisposing.
73 3057885 At a minimum, the distinguishing features of the DR3-associated and DR4-associated predisposition remain to be identified at the molecular level.
74 3057885 Risk estimates subdivided by the DR type of the proband are also calculated, the highest being 19.2% for sibs sharing two haplotypes with a DR3/DR4 proband.

77 3493006 The human major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-linked genes C2,BF,C4A,C4B occur in populations and segregate in families as single genetic units or complotypes.
78 3493006 We refer to the HLA-B/DR/complotype sets with significant linkage disequilibrium as extended haplotypes since they often show limited variation at other MHC-linked loci.
79 3493006 From the study of MHC haplotypes in 21-hydroxylase deficiency, C2 deficiency and type 1 diabetes, it is becoming apparent that it is extended haplotypes rather than their individual alleles that are markers for these MHC-associated diseases.
80 3856383 Much debate has taken place over the mode(s) of inheritance of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and the possibility of etiological heterogeneity.
81 3856383 We have analyzed the disease status (IDDM) and genetic marker (HLA-A/B haplotype) data from 61 multiple-case IDDM families ascertained through two registries in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, area.

83 3879724 A series of diabetic patients from 3 centres in South India have been tested for HLA A, HLA B, BF, C2, C4A, C4B and GLO types.
84 3879724 For insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients there was a significant increase in HLA B8, of BF F and decrease of C4 A6.
85 3879724 No significant variation in HLA, BF, C2 or GLO frequencies was found in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients, but there was a significant decrease in C4B 1 and an increase in C4B 2.
86 3987976 The families of 41 probands with type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were typed for HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DR antigens in addition to the complement polymorphisms C2, C4A, C4B, and Bf.
87 3987976 Alleles at HLA-B (8, 15, 18, and 40), HLA-DR (3 and 4), and Bf (F1) have been associated with increased relative risk (RR) for IDDM, while HLA-B7 and HLA-DR2 have been associated with decreased RR for IDDM.
88 3987976 In a recent study, we defined five high-risk haplotypes that were determined solely by HLA-B, Bf, and HLA-DR (B8-BfS-DR3, B8-BfS-DR4, B15-BfS-DR4, B18-BfF1-DR3, and B40-BfS-DR4).
89 3987976 The families of 41 probands with type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were typed for HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DR antigens in addition to the complement polymorphisms C2, C4A, C4B, and Bf.
90 3987976 Alleles at HLA-B (8, 15, 18, and 40), HLA-DR (3 and 4), and Bf (F1) have been associated with increased relative risk (RR) for IDDM, while HLA-B7 and HLA-DR2 have been associated with decreased RR for IDDM.
91 3987976 In a recent study, we defined five high-risk haplotypes that were determined solely by HLA-B, Bf, and HLA-DR (B8-BfS-DR3, B8-BfS-DR4, B15-BfS-DR4, B18-BfF1-DR3, and B40-BfS-DR4).
92 3987976 The families of 41 probands with type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were typed for HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DR antigens in addition to the complement polymorphisms C2, C4A, C4B, and Bf.
93 3987976 Alleles at HLA-B (8, 15, 18, and 40), HLA-DR (3 and 4), and Bf (F1) have been associated with increased relative risk (RR) for IDDM, while HLA-B7 and HLA-DR2 have been associated with decreased RR for IDDM.
94 3987976 In a recent study, we defined five high-risk haplotypes that were determined solely by HLA-B, Bf, and HLA-DR (B8-BfS-DR3, B8-BfS-DR4, B15-BfS-DR4, B18-BfF1-DR3, and B40-BfS-DR4).
95 6167481 Three groups of patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, ascertained by different procedures, were investigated for HLA-A, B, C and D antigens (n = 164), and a subset (n = 93) for HLA-DR.
96 6167481 The HLA-B associations (B8, B15 and B18) were clearly secondary to the increases of HLA-D/DR3 and D/DR 4.
97 6335238 Human lymphocyte antigen (HLA)-DR-typing was performed in 117 insulin-dependent diabetics with age at onset between 0.5 and 17 years (mean +/- SD, 9.0 +/- 3.9); 115 of 117 patients were DR3- and/or DR4-positive.
98 6335238 A comparison between DR3 and DR4 patients showed that DR4 patients manifested a seasonal variation of onset (most common onset during spring and autumn), had more severe signs and symptoms of the disease at onset, and were less likely to have a partial remission than patients with DR3.
99 6395625 The frequency distribution of HLA antigens (A, B, C) was not different from normal and there was no association between HLA B 8 and/or B 15 and early insulin response or kt values.
100 6395625 At the second follow-up, two children of type I diabetic mothers had acquired type I diabetes, both were HLA B 15 positive, had normal kt values at the first follow-up, one with low, one with a high early insulin response.
101 6395625 The frequency distribution of HLA antigens (A, B, C) was not different from normal and there was no association between HLA B 8 and/or B 15 and early insulin response or kt values.
102 6395625 At the second follow-up, two children of type I diabetic mothers had acquired type I diabetes, both were HLA B 15 positive, had normal kt values at the first follow-up, one with low, one with a high early insulin response.
103 6443704 Initial researches, performed until now almost exclusively upon diabetics treated with conventional heterologous insulin, seem to indicate a positive relationship between haplotype HLA - B15 - DR4 and an elevated immune response, whereas haplotypes HLA - B8 - DR3 and HLA - B18 - DR3 might protect against the formation of anti-insulin antibodies.
104 6443704 Antigens D/DR3 and D/DR4 are known to be primitively associated to susceptibility for type I diabetes, whereas antigens B8, B15, B18 are secondarily associated to the rise in frequency of DR3 and DR4 for the "linkage disequilibrium" existing between alleles of B and D loci.
105 6443704 A study of the frequencies of various HLA-B antigens in both groups of patients, in regard to a control group of piemontese population, in relation to the intensity of association (relative risk) and to the statistical importance of frequencies, shows only a possible protective effect of the HLA-B18 phenotype (linkage disequilibrium with HLA - DR3) towards the production of anti-insulin antibodies and hyperimmune clinical manifestations, such as allergy.
106 6594040 Two hundred subjects with insulin-dependent (type I) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were typed for HLA-B, HLA-DR, and properdin factor B (Bf).
107 6594040 One haplotype (B7-BfS-DR2) exhibited significant negative association, while five haplotypes (B8-BfS-DR3, B8-BfS-DR4, B15-BfS-DR4, B18-BfF1-DR3, and B40-BfS-DR4) exhibited significant positive associations with IDDM.
108 6610167 Insulin administration (once or twice a day) and glycemic control as reflected by hemoglobin A1C were identical in those with progression and in those with no progression of retinopathy.
109 6610167 Human lymphocyte antigen (HLA) types DR3 and DR4 in combination occurred more frequently (P less than .001) in those with progression of retinopathy than in those without progression.
110 6610167 Teenaged , female, insulin-dependent diabetics with both HLA DR3, and DR4, were at increased risk for developing proliferative retinopathy.
111 6746903 The frequencies of extended haplotypes that were composed of specific HLA-B, HLA-DR, BF, C2, C4A, and C4B allelic combinations, which occurred more commonly than expected, were compared on random diabetic and normal chromosomes in the study families.
112 6746903 We demonstrated that all of the previously recognized increases in HLA-B8, B18, B15, DR3, and perhaps DR4 could be ascribed to the increase among diabetic haplotypes of a few extended haplotypes: [HLA B8, DR3, SC01, GLO2]; [HLA-B18, DR3, F1C30]; [HLA-B15, DR4, SC33]; and [HLA-BW38, DR4, SC21].
113 6814597 The difference in the binding capacity of beef insulin by the high affinity antibodies between the groups with DR3 and DR4 antigens was less pronounced but still significant.
114 6814597 If extended to human insulin and different HLA-DR and HLA-B antigen patterns, these finding should help in the therapeutic selection of the appropriate insulin and thus reduce the induction of an anti-insulin response in patients with diabetes.
115 7014302 Cold-reacting serum lymphocytotoxic antibodies (LCAs) were measured in sera from 230 insulin-dependent juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients and from 116 control subjects.
116 7014302 In contrast, B7 did not provide protection from LCAs in B18/B7 IDDM patients.
117 7014302 Properdin factor B (Bf) alleles, which are in linkage disequilibrium with alleles of the HLA-B locus, were also associated with LCAs, IDDM patients with alleles BfS1 or BfF hd a prevalence of LCAs of 7%, significantly less than the 39% in Bf-F1S or -F1 patients.
118 7141166 In 129 patients with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, 100 healthy control subjects and 91 non-diabetic first degree relatives of Type 1 patients, we investigated variation in serum IgA, IgG and IgM concentrations with sex and HLA-B phenotype.
119 7235615 The relationships between the HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C antigens and diabetic end-stage nephropathy were therefore evaluated in the present study.
120 7605869 The markers included MHC class I, II and III loci, the manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) locus (chr. 6q), interleukin-1 beta (IL1B), the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL1RN), and the IL-1 type 1 receptor (IL1RI) loci (each chr. 2q).
121 7605869 No significant differences between familial and sporadic cases were found within the MHC region (including the following loci: HLA-DQ, -DR, heat shock protein (HSP) 70, tumour necrosis factor (TNF), HLA-B and -A).
122 7605869 For the IL1B RFLP a trend for difference was observed between familial cases and control subjects (p = 0.046), whereas no differences between sporadic cases and control subjects could be demonstrated neither at the IL1B nor at the IL1RN loci.
123 7693583 Furthermore, we conclude that YACs as large as 360 kb are able to be used as probes to identify new transcripts and that the MHC region between HLA-B and BAT1 is the site of a large multiply spliced gene, provisionally designated PERB6.

149 7901896 Polymorphic analysis of the human MHC-linked heat shock protein 70 (HSP70-2) and HSP70-Hom genes in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
150 7901896 In the present study we characterized the frequencies of two polymorphisms within the MHC-linked heat shock protein (HSP) 70 genes in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) (n = 114) and healthy control individuals (n = 110).
151 7901896 However, for the HSP70-2 polymorphisms this was solely due to linkage disequilibrium with DR3.
152 7901896 The rate HSP70-Hom 2-allele was significantly more frequent in controls than in patients.
153 7901896 It showed strong association with certain tumour necrosis factor (TNF) (class III) and HLA-B and -A (class I) alleles independent of HLA-DQ and -DR alleles.
154 7901896 By typing 257 individuals from 55 IDDM multiple-case families two extended MHC-haplotypes, including class II-, TNF- and class I-markers, carrying the rare HSP70-Hom allele were defined.
155 7901896 The functional implication of the polymorphism in the heat shock-inducible HSP70-2 gene was analysed by studying HSP70-2 mRNA expression after heat shock in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from individuals with different HSP70-2 genotypes.
156 7927538 We have used genomic analysis to characterize a region of the central major histocompatibility complex (MHC) spanning approximately 300 kilobases (kb) between TNF and HLA-B.
157 7927538 A genomic probe, JAB, containing putative coding sequences (PERB11) located 60 kb centromeric of HLA-B, was used for northern analysis of human tissues.
158 7927538 Southern analysis of genomic DNA and overlapping YAC clones, covering the region from BAT1 to HLA-F, indicated that there are at least five copies of PERB11, four of which are located within this region of the MHC.
159 7927538 The putative amino acid sequence of PERB11 shares approximately 30% identity to MHC class I molecules from various species, including reptiles, chickens, and frogs, as well as to other MHC class I-like molecules, such as the IgG FcR of the mouse and rat and the human Zn-alpha 2-glycoprotein.
160 7927538 From direct comparison of amino acid sequences, it is concluded that PERB11 is a distinct molecule more closely related to nonmammalian than known mammalian MHC class I molecules.
161 7927538 Genomic sequence analysis of PERB11 from five MHC ancestral haplotypes (AH) indicated that the gene is polymorphic at both DNA and protein level.
162 7927538 We have used genomic analysis to characterize a region of the central major histocompatibility complex (MHC) spanning approximately 300 kilobases (kb) between TNF and HLA-B.
163 7927538 A genomic probe, JAB, containing putative coding sequences (PERB11) located 60 kb centromeric of HLA-B, was used for northern analysis of human tissues.
164 7927538 Southern analysis of genomic DNA and overlapping YAC clones, covering the region from BAT1 to HLA-F, indicated that there are at least five copies of PERB11, four of which are located within this region of the MHC.

168 8061374 Chief among these is the detrimental effect of HLA-A and HLA-B antigen mismatching.
169 8099884 We studied the relationship between residual beta-cell function and HLA class I and class II antigens in 111 unrelated Japanese IDDM patients.
170 8099884 DNA typing for HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1 antigens was performed in addition to serological typing of HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, and HLA-DR antigens.
171 8168859 Molecular cloning of the dog homologue of the lymphocyte antigen CD28.
172 8307783 Recently identified genes within the MHC include PERB6, a large gene producing multiple transcripts located between HLA-B and TNF, and PERB1, a member of the protein tyrosine kinase-gene family.
173 8307785 In humans, susceptibility genes for MG and IDDM have been localized to the region between TNF and HLA-B.
174 8707280 Genetic variability was assessed by haplotype analysis combining alleles at HLA-B, D6S265, HLA-A, and D6S105 loci.
175 8803534 B27, B37, B38 and B49) and the probable decrease in the frequency of HLA-B homozygotes in surviving patients (Pcorrected = 0.008) may provide an objective model to explain the maintenance of the HLA polymorphism: less frequent HLA alleles may be more advantageous in the event of unexpected human contact with unusual xenobiotics (not only microbes); however, other mechanisms working together to preserve and generate HLA polymorphism may coexist.
176 8872171 From the analysis of TNFabc on extended haplotype fragments, and assuming that the fragments arose by ancient homologous crossing over, it was possible to "map" TNF and how that it was somewhat closer to HLA-B than the complement region, corresponding to the physical map of this region.
177 8872171 There was also a trend for higher TNF-alpha secretion by peripheral blood mononuclear cells from individuals homozygous for [HLA-B8, SC01, DR3] than from individuals homozygous for [HLA-B7, SC31, DR2].
178 8950668 Previously our case-control study in the Belgian population showed significant association between IDDM and certain HLA class II alleles, in particular Lys71+, encoding DRB1 alleles.
179 8950668 In the present study, 81 Danish multiplex IDDM families and 82 healthy Danish controls were examined for polymorphisms in the HLA-DRB genes and 54 of the 81 families for polymorphisms in HLA-B, -DQA1, -DQB1, -TNFA, and -TNFB genes.
180 8950668 Linkage between IDDM and DRB1 alleles that encode Lys71+ was shown by affected zib pair analysis which showed strong linkage (p < 1 x 10(-6).
181 8989248 Among those candidate genes is the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) located on chromosome 2q33 in man.
182 8989248 We investigated the distribution of the CTLA4 exon 1 polymorphism (49 A/G) in Graves' disease and IDDM.
183 8989248 In conclusion, an alanine at codon 17 of CTLA4 is associated with genetic susceptibility to Graves' disease as well as to IDDM.
184 9034866 The comparative weakness of most HLA class I associations with disease has made HLA-B27 an especially favored target for investigation, and more is known of the structure and peptide-presenting function of HLA-B27 than for any other HLA-B allotype (López de Castro 1994).
185 9034866 Such speculation invites the obvious question as to whether other diseases associated with HLA class I and chronic inflammation, HLA-C and psoriasis for example (Tiilikainen et al. 1980, Yanagisawa et al. 1995), result from class II presentation of class I peptides.
186 9398726 Because the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) alanine-17 encoded by the CTLA4 gene on chromosome 2q33 confers susceptibility to Graves' disease, as well as to type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, we investigated this dimorphism in the other endocrine autoimmune disorders: Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Addison's disease.
187 9599304 Quantitative defects in the density of conformationally correct human lymphocyte antigen (HLA) class I complexes on the surface of lymphocytes are apparent in patients with diverse HLA-linked autoimmune diseases, including Type I diabetes and Sjögren's syndrome.
188 9599304 Polyglandular failure patients whose disease showed HLA linkage, but not those whose disease was not HLA linked, exhibited decreased HLA class I expression on the surface of their lymphocytes as well as a reduced abundance of transcripts of the HLA-linked genes Tap1 and Tap2, both of which encode proteins that contribute to HLA class I processing.
189 9599304 Second, lymphocytes from patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), Sjögren's syndrome, Graves' disease, and Hashimoto's disease showed varying degrees of decreased abundance of mRNAs that encode Tap1, Tap2, Lmp2, or Lmp7 (the latter two proteins also contribute to HLA class I processing).
190 9599304 Fourth, functional assays of isolated diabetic proteasomes, the peptide cutting complex containing LMP2 and LMP7 proteins, revealed altered peptidase activity.
191 9754820 A missense mutation in the CD38 gene, a novel factor for insulin secretion: association with Type II diabetes mellitus in Japanese subjects and evidence of abnormal function when expressed in vitro.
192 9754820 As human lymphocyte antigen CD38 has both ADP-ribosyl cyclase and cADPR hydrolase activity, it may be important in glucose-induced insulin secretion in islets.
193 9754820 One patient with this mutation has two missense mutations on beta cell/liver glucose transporter (GLUT2) gene; her mother, who has impaired glucose tolerance, also has this mutation on the CD38 gene and one missense mutation on the GLUT2 gene.
194 9754820 The Arg140Trp mutation on CD38 thus appears to contribute to the development of Type II diabetes mellitus via the impairment of glucose-induced insulin secretion in the presence of other genetic defects.
195 10319267 This review concerns the 8.1 AH (HLA-A1, C7, B8, C4AQ0, C4B1, DR3, DQ2), which is carried by most Caucasians with HLA-B8.
196 10319267 It is associated with accelerated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, and susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatitis herpetiformis, common variable immunodeficiency and IgA deficiency, myasthenia gravis and several other conditions.
197 10319267 We have mapped susceptibility genes for HIV, IDDM and myasthenia gravis to the central MHC between HLA-B and the tumour necrosis factor or complement genes.
198 10430815 The genetic susceptibility is strongly associated with HLA-DQ and DR on chromosome 6, but genetic factors on other chromosomes such as the insulin gene on chromosome 11 and the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen gene on chromosome 2 may modulate disease risk.
199 10430815 Markers of autoimmunity include autoantibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase, insulin, and islet cell antigen-2, a tyrosine phosphatase-like protein.
200 10677243 Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CD152) regulates self-reactive T cells in BALB/c but not in the autoimmune NOD mouse.
201 10677243 Recent studies demonstrated that engagement of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4)/(CD152) generates an inhibitory signal to T cells which arrests an on-going immune response.
202 10677243 Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CD152) regulates self-reactive T cells in BALB/c but not in the autoimmune NOD mouse.
203 10677243 Recent studies demonstrated that engagement of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4)/(CD152) generates an inhibitory signal to T cells which arrests an on-going immune response.
204 10703602 Analysis of tumor necrosis factor-alpha promoter polymorphism in type 1 diabetes: HLA-B and -DRB1 alleles are primarily associated with the disease in Japanese.
205 10703602 Since these TNF-alpha alleles are in linkage disequilibria with certain DRB1 and HLA-B alleles, two-locus analyses were carried out.
206 10703602 Because HLA-B and DRB1 genes were independently associated, both of these genes may be contributed primarily to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes in Japanese.
207 10703602 Analysis of tumor necrosis factor-alpha promoter polymorphism in type 1 diabetes: HLA-B and -DRB1 alleles are primarily associated with the disease in Japanese.
208 10703602 Since these TNF-alpha alleles are in linkage disequilibria with certain DRB1 and HLA-B alleles, two-locus analyses were carried out.

211 10703602 Since these TNF-alpha alleles are in linkage disequilibria with certain DRB1 and HLA-B alleles, two-locus analyses were carried out.
212 10703602 Because HLA-B and DRB1 genes were independently associated, both of these genes may be contributed primarily to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes in Japanese.
213 10724349 Allelic frequency of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) differed between the positive and negative subjects (P=0.0432).
214 10803866 Although MHC class II genes have a stronger association with type 1 diabetes than MHC class I genes, studies have shown that MHC class I molecules play an independent role in the etiology of type 1 diabetes, and the existence of susceptibility genes within a segment of MHC between the HLA-B and TNF genes has been predicted, where MHC class I chain-related gene A (MICA) resides.
215 11237226 Polymorphisms in the regulatory region of the insulin gene (designated IDDM2), polymorphisms in cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene (IDDM12), and other genes are likely to contribute to diabetes risk and susceptibility in some individuals.
216 11237226 In selected families, major diabetogenes (e.g., IDDM17, autoimmune regulator gene (AIRE)) are likely to be of importance.
217 11681491 Recent studies have described linkage and association of type 1 diabetes to the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene (IDDM12)in Caucasians.
218 11681491 We also investigated association between this CTLA-4 gene polymorphism and GAD65 antibody positivity in 103 of the patients.
219 11681491 There was no significant difference in the distribution of CTLA-4 alleles between patients and controls, and no difference was observed in the prevalence of CTLA-4 alleles when GAD65 antibody-positive and -negative individuals with the type 1 diabetes were compared.
220 11788096 One locus, IDD12, includes the gene for cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen (CTLA-4).
221 11860706 Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4 or CD152) is a strong negative regulator of T cell activity.
222 11860706 Like CD28 (a positive regulator) it binds to B7-1 and B7-2, and there is no known natural selective ligand.
223 11860706 However, a single amino acid substitution in B7-1 (W88 > A; denoted B7-1wa) abrogates binding to CD28 but not to CTLA-4.
224 11860706 Interferon-gamma and interleukin-4 were both depressed, arguing against a Th2 bias.
225 12021089 Slowly progressive insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), like classical IDDM, is also associated with genetic markers.
226 12021089 Alleles of the MHC class I chain-related A (MICA) gene located centromeric to the HLA-B gene is associated with LADA.
227 12021089 Allele 5.1 of MICA was associated with both LADA and adult-onset Italian IDDM patients when compared to controls.
228 12366785 HLA-DRB1 and MHC class 1 chain-related A haplotypes in Basque families with celiac disease.
229 12366785 Recent publications have pointed to the possibility that a second, independent susceptibility locus could be located in the same genomic region, and a triplet repeat polymorphism in exon 5 of the gene MHC class I chain-related protein A (MICA; located between TNFA and HLA-B) has been associated with several autoimmune disorders, including type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) and Addison's disease.
230 12366785 On the other hand, a single amino acid change in exon 3 of MICA (M129V) has been shown to strongly reduce MICA binding to NKG2D, an activating natural killer receptor expressed also on T cells, and this could have significant effects on autoimmune reactions.
231 12366785 In this study, we have analyzed the contribution of these polymorphisms to CD in 37 Basque families, and have constructed MICA-HLA-DRB1 haplotypes to determine whether MICA has an effect independent from the HLA class II conferred risk.
232 12366785 In view of our results, both HLA-DRB1 and MICA are associated with CD, but stratification analysis did not show any independent contribution of the MICA polymorphisms analyzed to CD risk.
233 12366785 Besides, MICA allele A4 (also A5.1 was associated with risk for CD and other diseases) is in strong linkage disequilibrium with HLA-DRB1*0301.
234 12461578 Soluble Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4 (CTLA4-Ig), which binds B7 molecule on antigen presenting cells and blocks CD28 mediated T-lymphocyte activation, has been shown to ameliorate experimental autoimmune diseases such as lupus, diabetes and CIA.
235 12461578 CII-specific lymphocyte proliferation, IFNgamma production and anti-CII antibodies were significantly reduced by CTLA4-Ig treatment.
236 12461578 Our results demonstrate that blockade of the B7/CD28 co-stimulatory pathway by adenovirus-mediated CTLA4-Ig gene transfer is effective in treating established CIA suggesting its potential in treating RA.
237 12518898 Co-stimulatory molecules in islet xenotransplantation: CTLA4Ig treatment in CD40 ligand-deficient mice.
238 12518898 Previous work has demonstrated that short-term systemic administration of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) Ig blocks human pancreatic islet xenograft rejection in mice and induces long-term, donor-specific tolerance, whereas studies on pig pancreatic islet rejection in mice have failed to demonstrate a role for CTLA4Ig in preventing rejection.
239 12518898 However, simultaneous blockade of the CD28 and CD40 co-stimulatory pathways prolongs the survival of pig skin on recipient mice.
240 12518898 To evaluate the role of CD28 and CD40 co-stimulatory pathways in pig islet-like cell cluster (ICC) xenograft rejection in mice, CD40L-deficient mice transplanted with fetal porcine ICCs were given posttransplant treatment with human (h) CTLA4Ig or a human IgG1 chimeric mAb (hL6).
241 12518898 Simultaneous blockade of the CD28 and CD40 co-stimulatory pathways is mandatory to inhibit ICC xenograft rejection in the pig-to-mouse model, because the CD28 and CD40 co-stimulatory pathways seem capable of efficiently substituting for one another.
242 12542740 The Indian and European haplotypes share HLA-B*0801, HLA-DRB1*0301 and HLA-DQB1*02 but differ for subtypes of HLA-Cw*07 and HLA-DRB3 and all central MHC alleles tested.
243 12595901 Evidence of at least two type 1 diabetes susceptibility genes in the HLA complex distinct from HLA-DQB1, -DQA1 and -DRB1.
244 12595901 By haplotype mapping, we have located the most likely location for this second DQ2-DR3 haplotype-modifying locus to the 2.35 Mb region between HLA-DOB and marker D6S2702, located 970 kb telomeric of HLA-B.
245 12724780 Here we identify polymorphisms of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 gene (CTLA4)--which encodes a vital negative regulatory molecule of the immune system--as candidates for primary determinants of risk of the common autoimmune disorders Graves' disease, autoimmune hypothyroidism and type 1 diabetes.
246 12724780 In the mouse model of type 1 diabetes, susceptibility was also associated with variation in CTLA-4 gene splicing with reduced production of a splice form encoding a molecule lacking the CD80/CD86 ligand-binding domain.
247 12878361 The aim of this study was to investigate the possible association of human leukocyte antigen (HLA-B, HLA-DR) and MHC class I chain-related-transmembrane (MICA-TM) polymorphism with the behavior and extension of UC.
248 12919291 The cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) region on 2q33 has been shown to be linked to, and associated with, type 1 diabetes (T1D) and suggested to be one of the loci contributing to diabetes aetiology.
249 14570752 The putative GD and HT susceptibility genes include both immune modifying genes (e.g., human leukocyte antigen, cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4) and thyroid-specific genes (e.g., TSH receptor, thyroglobulin).
250 14675397 Coeliac disease: investigation of proposed causal variants in the CTLA4 gene region.
251 14675397 A number of studies have also shown association of autoimmune diseases, including CD, with the CD28-cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4)-inducible costimulator (ICOS) region of chromosome 2q33, but until recently the precise causal variant has remained unknown.
252 14675397 Recently, it was shown that, in GD, CT60 (+6230G>A), a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at the end of the CTLA4 transcript, is associated with an alteration in the ratio of splice forms of the CTLA4 gene and that this ratio affects disease susceptibility.
253 14675397 Alternatively, the previously noted association of CD with the CTLA4 gene region may be due to different causal variants.
254 14675397 Unlike T1D and GD, CD is not a true autoimmune disease, and CD has different associations at the CTLA4 exon 1 SNP +49G>A from all other autoimmune disorders.
255 15028669 BAT1 (D6S81E, UAP56) lies in the central MHC between TNF and HLA-B, a region containing genes that affect susceptibility to immunopathologic disorders.
256 15132716 These investigations have shown, with increasing evidence, that the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene is an important susceptibility locus for autoimmune endocrinopathies and other autoimmune disorders.
257 15237707 Analysis of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) exon 1 polymorphism in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in a Turkish population.
258 15237707 Recent studies have described linkage and association between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene polymorphism and type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) in some ethnic populations, but not others.
259 15237707 Analysis of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) exon 1 polymorphism in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in a Turkish population.
260 15237707 Recent studies have described linkage and association between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene polymorphism and type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) in some ethnic populations, but not others.
261 15240634 The cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) gene on chromosome 2q33 encodes a key regulator in the adaptive immune system.
262 15356063 At least two immune regulatory genes are associated with GD, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4).
263 15492127 Prediabetes and diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice have been targeted by a variety of immunotherapies, including the use of a soluble form of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and interferon (IFN)-gamma.
264 15492127 The defect is characterized by impaired induction of immunosuppressive tryptophan catabolism, is related to transient blockade of the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)1 pathway of intracellular signaling by IFN-gamma, and is caused by peroxynitrite production.
265 15492127 Here, we show that soluble CTLA-4 imparts suppressive properties to DCs from early prediabetic NOD female mice through mechanisms that rely on autocrine signaling by IFN-gamma.
266 15492127 Although phosphorylation of STAT1 in response to IFN-gamma is compromised in those mice, CTLA-4 obviates the defect.
267 15492127 IFN-gamma-driven expression of tryptophan catabolism by CTLA-4-immunoglobulin is made possible through the concomitant activation of the Forkhead Box class O (FOXO) transcription factor FOXO3a, induction of the superoxide dismutase gene, and prevention of peroxynitrite formation.
268 15592805 The role of regulatory polymorphisms in determining susceptibility to a number of complex disease traits is discussed, including variation at the VNTR of INS, encoding insulin, in type 1 diabetes and polymorphism of CTLA4, encoding cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen, in autoimmune disease.
269 15592805 Regulatory variation may also operate at other levels of control of gene expression and the modulation of splicing at PTPRC, encoding protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor-type C, and of translational efficiency at F12, encoding factor XII, are discussed.
270 15629882 CBLB variants in type 1 diabetes and their genetic interaction with CTLA4.
271 15629882 Evidence for common genetic factors underlying several autoimmune diseases has come from studies of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4), which encodes another negatively regulatory molecule in the immune system.
272 15629882 We performed stratification of CBLB exon 12 SNP data, according to an established CTLA4 marker, CT60, and evidence for a genetic interaction between the CTLA4 and CBLB genes, involved in the same biological pathway of T cell receptor signaling, was observed.
273 15784469 In this study, molecular genotyping was performed at the HLA-B and HLA-C loci for 283 multiplex Caucasian families, previously typed for HLA-A and the class II loci.
274 15784469 Linkage disequilibrium coefficients were calculated for HLA-B-HLA-C haplotypes and for class I-lass II haplotypes.
275 15784469 As with previous results for HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C are associated with age at T1D onset (mean 11.6 +/- 0.3 years).
276 15784469 In this study, molecular genotyping was performed at the HLA-B and HLA-C loci for 283 multiplex Caucasian families, previously typed for HLA-A and the class II loci.
277 15784469 Linkage disequilibrium coefficients were calculated for HLA-B-HLA-C haplotypes and for class I-lass II haplotypes.
278 15784469 As with previous results for HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C are associated with age at T1D onset (mean 11.6 +/- 0.3 years).
279 15784469 In this study, molecular genotyping was performed at the HLA-B and HLA-C loci for 283 multiplex Caucasian families, previously typed for HLA-A and the class II loci.
280 15784469 Linkage disequilibrium coefficients were calculated for HLA-B-HLA-C haplotypes and for class I-lass II haplotypes.
281 15784469 As with previous results for HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C are associated with age at T1D onset (mean 11.6 +/- 0.3 years).
282 15858601 Does a central MHC gene in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-DRB1*0401 affect susceptibility to type 1 diabetes?
283 15858601 We addressed whether this reflects linkage disequilibrium with the true susceptibility locus by studying broader MHC haplotypes marked by alleles of HLA-B, IKBL (adjacent to TNFA) and complement C4.
284 15858601 A gene between TNFA and HLA-B on the 8.1AH (HLA-A1,B8,;DR3,DQ2) modifies the effects of the class II alleles.
285 15858601 Here, alleles characteristic of the 62.1AH (C4B3, IKBL+446*T and HLA-A2,B15) were screened in donors preselected for HLA-DRB1*0401.
286 15858601 C4B3 was associated with diabetes, consistent with a diabetes gene telomeric of MHC class II.
287 15858601 However, with these tools, selection of HLA-DRB1*0401, DQB1*0302 donors who are positive and negative for C4B3 will allow bidirectional mapping of diabetes genes in the central MHC.
288 15858601 Does a central MHC gene in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-DRB1*0401 affect susceptibility to type 1 diabetes?
289 15858601 We addressed whether this reflects linkage disequilibrium with the true susceptibility locus by studying broader MHC haplotypes marked by alleles of HLA-B, IKBL (adjacent to TNFA) and complement C4.
290 15858601 A gene between TNFA and HLA-B on the 8.1AH (HLA-A1,B8,;DR3,DQ2) modifies the effects of the class II alleles.
291 15858601 Here, alleles characteristic of the 62.1AH (C4B3, IKBL+446*T and HLA-A2,B15) were screened in donors preselected for HLA-DRB1*0401.
292 15858601 C4B3 was associated with diabetes, consistent with a diabetes gene telomeric of MHC class II.
293 15858601 However, with these tools, selection of HLA-DRB1*0401, DQB1*0302 donors who are positive and negative for C4B3 will allow bidirectional mapping of diabetes genes in the central MHC.
294 16034471 The cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) acts as a potent negative regulator of T-cell response, and has been suggested as a pivotal candidate gene for autoimmune disorders such as Graves' disease, type 1 diabetes and autoimmune hypothyroidism, among others.
295 16206510 The cytotoxic T lymphocyte-antigen 4 (CTLA4) has been identified as a susceptible marker of the disease; it is considered a down regulator of T cell function, playing a key role in autoimmunity.
296 16313305 Polymorphisms at +49A/G and CT60 sites in the 3' UTR of the CTLA-4 gene and APECED-related AIRE gene mutations analysis in sporadic idiopathic hypoparathyroidism.
297 16313305 Autoimmune diseases such as Graves' disease and type 1 diabetes have been linked with +49A/G and CT60 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 3' UTR of the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene.
298 16313305 Hypoparathyroidism is seen in 70% of patients with autoimmune polyendocrinopathy candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy syndrome (APECED).
299 16313305 Although calcium sensing receptor autoantibodies (CaSRAb) and generalized activation of T lymphocytes are reported among patients with sporadic idiopathic hypoparathyroidism (SIH), CTLA-4 gene SNPs and APECED-related autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene mutations have not been assessed in them.
300 16313305 We studied lead CTLA-4 gene SNPs and APECED-related AIRE gene mutations in 73 patients with SIH and 114 healthy subjects.
301 16313305 Lack of significant difference in the pattern of CTLA-4 A/G(49) and/or CT60A/G genotypes and absence of common APECED syndrome-related AIRE gene mutations among patients and controls suggest that these sites do not play a role in the development of the SIH.
302 16568259 Non-MHC genes associated with susceptibility to type 1 diabetes in both Japanese and Caucasoid patients include polymorphisms in the insulin gene, the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) gene, the interleukin-18 (IL18) gene and the major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related gene A (MICA) gene.
303 17065335 Using this module, the induction of eight NFKB_IRFF_01-dependant genes was correctly predicted in progressive DN (B2M, CCL5/RANTES, CXCL10/IP10, EDN1, HLA-A, HLA-B, IFNB1, and VCAM1).
304 17130491 Natural CD4(+)CD25(high) regulatory T-cells are derived from thymus, and accordingly human insulin-specific regulatory T-cells should exist.
305 17130491 The mRNA expression of regulatory T-cell markers (transforming growth factor-beta, Foxp3, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 [CTLA-4], and inducible co-stimulator [ICOS]) or cytokines (gamma-interferon [IFN-gamma], interleukin [IL]-5, IL-4) was measured by quantitative RT-PCR.
306 17130491 The secretion of IFN-gamma, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10 was also studied.
307 17130491 The expression of Foxp3, CTLA-4, and ICOS mRNAs in PBMCs stimulated with bovine or human insulin was higher in patients on insulin treatment than in patients studied before starting insulin treatment.
308 17130491 The insulin-induced Foxp3 protein expression in CD4(+)CD25(high) cells was detectable in flow cytometry.
309 17130491 Insulin stimulation in vitro induced increased expression of regulatory T-cell markers, Foxp3, CTLA-4, and ICOS only in patients treated with insulin, suggesting that treatment with human insulin activates insulin-specific regulatory T-cells in children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes.
310 17174749 Linkage disequilibrium with predisposing DR3 haplotypes accounts for apparent effects of tumor necrosis factor and lymphotoxin-alpha polymorphisms on type 1 diabetes susceptibility.
311 17174749 Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and lymphotoxin alpha (LT-alpha) are immunomodulators that have been hypothesized to contribute to susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D).
312 17174749 Several polymorphisms in the TNF and LT-alpha loci have been extensively studied for T1D association, with conflicting reports.
313 17174749 In this study, we examined two TNF variants and one LT-alpha variant for T1D association in 283 Caucasian, multiplex T1D families for which complete human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotyping data are available.
314 17174749 Initially, association with T1D was seen for LT-alpha A1069G (intron A, p=0.011, rs909253) and TNF G(-308)A (p<1x10(-5), rs1800629), but no association was observed for TNF G(-238)A (rs361525).
315 17174749 Including HLA-B data in the analysis revealed that TNF (-238)A is present exclusively on DR3 haplotypes that also carry HLA-B18.
316 17257313 Insulin gene VNTR, CTLA-4 +49A/G and HLA-DQB1 alleles distinguish latent autoimmune diabetes in adults from type 1 diabetes and from type 2 diabetes group.
317 17257313 We aimed to investigate whether genetic factors that are associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) susceptibility, namely HLA-DQB1 alleles, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 gene (CTLA-4) and insulin gene (INS) polymorphisms, are also associated with an atypical subset of patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
318 17257313 Our data suggested that HLA-DQB1 alleles of all three risk classes, INS variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) I/I and CTLA-4 +49 GG or AG genotypes, were independent risk factors for developing LADA and could be used as a diagnostic tool to discriminate between LADA and T2D.
319 17257313 Additionally, there was an increased association between LADA and CTLA-4 diabetes-susceptibility genotypes and decreased association with INS VNTR and high-risk HLA-DQB1 alleles, compared with T1D.
320 17448564 Although consistent linkage evidence was reported for the susceptibility intervals IDDM2, IDDM5 and IDDM12, evidence for most other intervals varies in different data sets.
321 17448564 The variable number of tandem repeats at the 5' end of the insulin gene (IDDM2) regulates insulin expression in the thymus.
322 17448564 The polymorphisms of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 gene (CTLA4, IDDM12) encoding a regulatory molecule in the immune system associate with T1D and autoimmune thyroid diseases (ATD).
323 17448564 Both AIRE and Foxp3, identified initially via their association with genetically manipulated mice, are involved in tolerance induction in humans.
324 17498265 Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a multifactorial autoimmune disorder where major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes and the insulin-linked polymorphic region have been shown to play major roles.
325 17498265 The variants of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) (A(+874)T), interleukin (IL)-6 (G(-174)C), IL-10 (A(-1082)G, T(-819)C, C(-592)A) and transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1 (T(cdn10)C, G(cdn25)C) did not show a significant difference between patients and controls.
326 17498265 However, simultaneous presence of TNF-alpha-308 GA+AA along with both high and low secretor genotypes of IFN-gamma (P < 0.003) was significantly increased in patients.
327 17498265 Simultaneous presence of TNF-alpha-308 GA + AA along with high secretor genotypes of IL-6 (P < 0.0001, OR = 2.61, 95% CI = 1.5-4.56), IL-10 (P < 0.0001, OR = 4.26, 95% CI = 1.9-10.1) and TGF-beta1 (P < 0.00004, OR = 2.8, 95% CI = 1.6-4.86) was also significantly increased in patients with T1D.
328 17498265 Low secretor genotype of TNF-alpha-308 GG along with low secretor genotypes of IFN-gamma (P < 0.001, OR = 0.465, 95% CI = 0.28-0.77), high secretor genotypes of IL-6 (P < 0.000004, OR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.227-0.621) and TGF-beta1 (P < 0.000006, OR = 0.336, 95% CI = 0.198-0.568) was protective.
329 17498265 The TNF-alpha-308 G allele was in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*0801-DRB1*0301 haplotype, while TNF-alpha-308 A allele was in LD with the HLA-B*5001-DRB1*0301 and B*5801-DRB1*0301 haplotypes, suggesting that the effect of TNF-alpha -308 A allele is not because of its being in LD with any HLA alleles, but because of its functional role and its integrated effect with other cytokines.
330 17551474 Although more than 18 diabetes-predisposing genes have been reported to date, only the major histocompatibility complex (HLA) region on chromosome 6p21 (IDDM1) and the insulin gene on chromosome 11p15 (IDDM 2) have been conclusively associated with susceptibility to type 1 diabetes.
331 17551474 However, it has been shown recently that cytotoxic lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) on chromosome 2q33 (IDDM12) and LYP/PTPN22 on chromosome 1p13 also contribute to the genetic risk of T1DM.
332 17632406 Here we provide evidence that: 1) tryptophan conversion to kynurenines is activated in DCs by cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4, both in a soluble form or anchored to the regulatory T cell (Treg) membrane; 2) an increased IDO-dependent tolerogenesis correlates with the inhibition of DAP12 functions, an adapter molecule associated with activating receptors; 3) a tolerogenic phenotype can be acquired by DCs lacking functional IDO through the paracrine production of kynurenines by IDO-competent DCs; 4) the suppressive effect of Treg generated in a microenvironment with low tryptophan concentration and a mixture of kynurenines can protect mice in an experimental model of fulminant diabetes.
333 17924973 Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) is a potent inhibitory co-stimulatory molecule believed to be involved in type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.
334 17924973 All three CTLA4 molecules were able to bind to antigen-presenting cells and inhibit the expression of CD80/CD86. sCTLA4 was able to suppress proliferation of different committed autoreactive T cell clones in a dose-dependent manner, whereas CTLA4Ig and LEA29Y were not.
335 18004301 Localization of type 1 diabetes susceptibility to the MHC class I genes HLA-B and HLA-A.
336 18004301 In type 1 diabetes the major genetic susceptibility determinants have been mapped to the MHC class II genes HLA-DQB1 and HLA-DRB1 (refs 1-3), but these genes cannot completely explain the association between type 1 diabetes and the MHC region.
337 18004301 Here, in several large type 1 diabetes data sets, we analyse a combined total of 1,729 polymorphisms, and apply statistical methods-recursive partitioning and regression-to pinpoint disease susceptibility to the MHC class I genes HLA-B and HLA-A (risk ratios >1.5; P(combined) = 2.01 x 10(-19) and 2.35 x 10(-13), respectively) in addition to the established associations of the MHC class II genes.
338 18004301 Localization of type 1 diabetes susceptibility to the MHC class I genes HLA-B and HLA-A.
339 18004301 In type 1 diabetes the major genetic susceptibility determinants have been mapped to the MHC class II genes HLA-DQB1 and HLA-DRB1 (refs 1-3), but these genes cannot completely explain the association between type 1 diabetes and the MHC region.

341 18549445 The proposed cytotoxic lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) involvement, together with forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta are associated with regulatory T cell activity.
342 18549445 CTLA-4, sCTLA-4, FoxP3 and TGF-beta mRNA transcription was quantified.
343 18549445 Placebo individuals increased in spontaneous CTLA-4 mRNA (P < 0.05) but decreased in expression after stimulation with GAD(65)-peptide (P < 0.05) and PHA (P < 0.05).
344 18549445 Spontaneous TGF-beta (P < 0.05) increased whereas PHA- (P < 0.01) and GAD(65)-peptide (P < 0.01)-induced TGF-beta expression decreased in the placebo group, whereas it was maintained in the treated group.
345 18549445 Without intervention, expression of CTLA-4 and TGF-beta, stimulated with PHA and GAD(65) peptide, decreased with time, with a parallel reduction of GAD(65)-peptide and PHA-stimulated TGF-beta expression.
346 18725525 Dicer-deficient T reg lineage cells failed to remain stable, as a subset of cells down-regulated the T reg cell-specific transcription factor FoxP3, whereas the majority expressed altered levels of multiple genes and proteins (including Neuropilin 1, glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4) associated with the T reg cell fingerprint.
347 18725525 In fact, a significant percentage of the T reg lineage cells took on a T helper cell memory phenotype including increased levels of CD127, interleukin 4, and interferon gamma.
348 18776148 At least three genes have been confirmed as major joint susceptibility genes for T1D and AITD: human leukocyte antigen class II, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), and protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22.
349 18830248 Conditional analyses on the T1DGC MHC dataset: novel associations with type 1 diabetes around HLA-G and confirmation of HLA-B.
350 18830248 The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is known to harbour genetic risk factors for type 1 diabetes (T1D) additional to the class II determinants HLA-DRB1, -DQA1 and -DQB1, but strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) has made efforts to establish their location difficult.
351 18830248 A subset of polymorphisms that could explain most of the association in each region included single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the vicinity of HLA-G, particular HLA-B and HLA-DPB1 alleles, and SNPs close to the COL11A2 and RING1 genes.
352 18830248 Apart from HLA-B and HLA-DPB1, all of these represent novel associations, and subpopulation analyses did not indicate large population-specific differences among Caucasians for our findings.
353 18830248 On account of the unusual genetic complexity of the MHC, further fine mapping is demanded, with the possible exception of HLA-B.

369 18987644 Genetic variants of the HLA-A, HLA-B and AIF1 loci show independent associations with type 1 diabetes in Norwegian families.
370 18987644 The main genetic predisposition to type 1 diabetes (T1D) is known to be conferred by the HLA-DRB1, -DQA1 and -DQB1 genes in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC).
371 18987644 Using complementary conditional methods (involving conditional logistic regression and family-based haplotype tests) and analyses of linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns, we confirmed association for alleles of the HLA-A and HLA-B genes and found preliminary evidence for a novel association of a single-nucleotide polymorphism (rs2259571) in the AIF1 gene, independent of the DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 genes and of each other.

375 19209622 Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder typically presenting with chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal failure variably accompanied by other symptoms.
376 19209622 We report here a German girl with rheumatoid factor positive arthritis, chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, autoimmune hepatitis, chronic diarrhea, vitiligo, hypothyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal failure who is homozygous for a novel mutation at the end of exon 3 of the AIRE gene (c.462G>A), within the conserved splice donor sequence.
377 19209622 In addition, we analyzed five other family members out of three generations for the AIRE gene mutation and for polymorphisms in the cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) gene region and lymphoid protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPN22) gene, which are associated with the occurrence of sporadic autoimmune Addison's disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and generalized vitiligo.
378 19412418 Although other components of the HLA class I and III regions have also been investigated for association with AID, apart from the association of HLA-B*27 with ankylosing spondylitis, it has been difficult to determine additional susceptibility loci independent of the strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the HLA class II genes.
379 19412418 Association of the HLA class I region, independent of known HLA class II effects, has now been detected for several AIDs, including strong association of HLA-B with type 1 diabetes and HLA-C with multiple sclerosis and Graves' disease.
380 19412418 Although other components of the HLA class I and III regions have also been investigated for association with AID, apart from the association of HLA-B*27 with ankylosing spondylitis, it has been difficult to determine additional susceptibility loci independent of the strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the HLA class II genes.

382 19530270 The cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene was recently associated with AITD and PGA, and the CTLA-4 protein is a strong inhibitor of T-cells.The tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is a proinflammatory cytokine.
383 19530270 This study aimed to analyze the association of the CTLA-4 CT60 and TNF-alpha-863 polymorphisms with PGA.
384 19530270 Homogeneous groups of 70 patients with AITD, 70 with type 1 diabetes (T1D), 70 with both AITD and T1D (PGA), and 100 healthy controls were genotyped for the CTLA-4 CT60 and TNF-alpha-863 polymorphisms by minisequencing on an ABI PRISM-3100 genetic analyzer.
385 19530270 For TNF-alpha-863, carriers of the minor A allele occurred more frequently in the T1D group than in controls (47.1 % vs. 33 % , OR = 1.81, 95 % CI = 0.97-3.39, p = 0.079), but no differences in allele or genotype distribution were noted between PGA patients and controls (p = 0.886 and 0.389, respectively).

387 19584865 Here we show that the CD2-specific fusion protein alefacept (lymphocyte function-associated antigen-3-Ig; LFA -3-Ig) selectively eliminates memory T cells and, when combined with a co-stimulation blockade-based regimen using cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4)-Ig, a CD80- and CD86-specific fusion protein, prevents renal allograft rejection and alloantibody formation in nonhuman primates.

389 19672595 Polymorphisms in the CD28/CTLA4/ICOS genes: role in malignant melanoma susceptibility and prognosis?
390 19672595 CD28, Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) and inducible costimulator (ICOS) molecules are important secondary signal molecules in the T lymphocyte activation.
391 19672595 Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CD28/CTLA4/ICOS gene region were reported to be associated with several autoimmune diseases including, type-1 diabetes, SLE, autoimmune thyroid diseases and celiac disease.
392 19672595 In this study, we investigated the association of SNPs in the CD28, CTLA4 and ICOS genes with the risk of melanoma.
393 19672595 However, keeping in view the correction for multiple hypothesis testing our results suggest that the polymorphisms in the CD28, CTLA4 and ICOS genes at least do not modulate risk of melanoma and nor do those influence the disease prognosis in the investigated population.
