IA-2-autoantibodies complement GAD65-autoantibodies in new-onset IDDM patients and help predict impending diabetes in their siblings

IA-2 has been identified as an autoantigen that is recognized by immunoglobulins from insulin-dependent diabetic (IDDM) patients. Using a liquid phase radiobinding assay, we performed an IA-2-autoantibody (IA-2-Ab) assay in 474 IDDM patients and 482 non-diabetic control subjects aged 0–39 years. IA-2-Ab were detected in 58 % of the patients and 0.8 % of control subjects. Their prevalence in patients was lower than that of islet cell autoantibodies (ICA; 73 %) or glutamic acid decarboxylase (Mr 65 kDa)-autoantibodies (GAD65-Ab; 82 %) but higher than that of insulin autoantibodies (IAA; 42 %).
