- SUMO4 M55V, located in IDDM5, has been a focus for debate because of its association to type I diabetes (TIDM) in Asians but not in Caucasians. The current study aims to test the significance of M55V association to TIDM in a large cohort of Swedish Caucasians, and to test whether M55V is associated in those carrying human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II molecules. A total of 673 TIDM patients and 535 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included in the study. PCR-RFLP was performed to identify the genotype and allele variations. Our data suggest that SUMO4 M55V is not associated with susceptibility to TIDM by itself. When we stratified our patients and controls based on heterozygosity for HLA-DR3/DR4 and SUMO4 genotypes, we found that presence of SUMO4 GG increased further the relative risk conferred by HLA-DR3/DR4 to TIDM, whereas SUMO4 AA decreased the risk. From the current study, we conclude that SUMO4 M55V is associated with TIDM in association with high-risk HLA-DR3 and DR4, but not by itself.

- BACKGROUND: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of CRYAB gene have been associated with in multiple sclerosis. CRYAB gene, which encodes alpha B-crystallin (a member of small heat shock protein), was reported as a potential autoimmune target. In this study we investigated whether SNPs in the promoter region of CRYAB gene were also important in the etiology of Type 1 diabetes (T1D).METHODS: Genotyping of SNPs in the promoter region of CRYAB gene was performed in a Swedish cohort containing 444 T1D patients and 350 healthy controls. Three SNPs were included in this study: CRYAB-652 A>G (rs762550), -650 C>G (rs2234702) and -249 C > G (rs14133). Two SNPs (CRYAB-652 and -650) were not included in previous genome wide association studies.RESULTS: CRYAB-650 (rs2234702)*C allele was significantly more frequent in patients than in controls (OR = 1.48, Pc = 0.03). CRYAB-650*C allele was associated with IAA positivity (OR = 8.17, Pc < 0.0001) and IA-2A positivity (OR = 2.14, Pc = 0.005) in T1D patients. This association with IAA was amplified by high-risk HLA carrier state (OR = 10.6, P < 0.0001). No association was found between CRYAB-650 and other autoantibody positivity (GADA and ICA). CRYAB haplotypes were also associated with IAA and IA-2A positivity (highest OR = 2.07 and 2.11, respectively), these associations remain in high HLA-risk T1D patients.CONCLUSIONS: CRYAB-650 was associated with T1D in the Swedish cohort we studied. CRYAB-650*C allele might confers susceptibility to the development of T1D. CRYAB-650 was also associated with the development of IAA-positivity in T1D patients, especially in those carrying T1D high-risk HLA haplotypes.

- OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship among metabolic control, IGF-I, and growth in pubertal diabetic subjects.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: In 72 diabetic children, we have studied the pattern of change of IGF-I, IGF-I SD score, IGF binding protein (BP)-1, and growth rate in different pubertal stages and have analyzed their relation to age sex, weight/length index, HbA1c, insulin concentration, insulin dose, and dehydroepiandrosteronesulfate (DHEAS).RESULTS: The serum IGF-I values increased up to Tanner stage 4 and thereafter decreased, whereas IGFBP-1 showed the inverse pattern. When transforming the IGF-I values into SD scores, correcting for age, sex, and pubertal stage, it was shown that the deviation from normal values increased with increasing pubertal stage in boys, but was equal in stages 3-5 in girls. Using multiple regression analysis, HbA1c, insulin dose, and DHEAS were significantly correlated to IGF-I SD score (R2 = 0.253, P = 0.001). IGFBP-I levels in the afternoon were within normal range. LogIGFBP-1 showed an inverse correlation, to insulin concentration in single correlation (r = -0.26, P = 0.02). In single correlation, growth rate correlated significantly to insulin dose (r = 0.25, P = 0.03). In a multiple regression analysis, only DHEAS and IGF-I SD score were found to be significantly correlated to growth rate (R2 = 0.370, P < 0.001). The 18 adolescents who had reached their final height did not deviate from their target final height, according to their recorded growth since birth.CONCLUSIONS: In a group of fairly well-controlled diabetic children, the normal increase in IGF-I during puberty is blunted. Despite decreased IGF-I levels, target final height was attained, probably because of adequate insulin compensation leading to normal IGFBP-l, thus adequate bioavailability of IGF-I. Our results point out the importance of sufficient exogenous insulin in the period of rapid linear growth.

- Hyperglycaemia and increased variability of blood glucose in pubertal children with type 1 diabetes may be related to increased growth hormone (GH) secretion and insulin resistance. The role of changes in insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) bioavailability for the glycaemic control in these patients has not been completely elucidated. In particular, the possible role of increased IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) proteolysis reported in other insulin resistant states awaits further characterization. The aims of this study were to assess if hyperglycaemia in children with type 1 diabetes was associated with changes in free dissociable IGF-I (fdIGF-I) and IGF binding protein-3 protease activity (IGFBP-3-PA) and if increased insulin resistance during puberty was associated with changes in IGFBP-3-PA in healthy and diabetic children. In diabetic boys in the period of maximal linear growth (Tanner stage 3, n = 5), the mean level and the variability of IGFBP-3-PA, determined every second hour throughout 24 h, were significantly higher both compared to postpubertal diabetic boys (n = 6; P = 0.003 and P = 0.001, respectively), and to age matched healthy boys (n = 4; P = 0.006 and P < 0.001 respectively). This activation of IGFBP-3-PA was most prominent during the day time. The mean 24 h blood glucose level (determined hourly) was the only parameter studied that significantly predicted the changes in mean 24 h IGFBP-3-PA in the diabetes group. The mean 24 h concentrations of fdIGF-I were decreased in the diabetic boys compared to the healthy controls but statistical significance was only achieved in Tanner Stage 5 (p = 0.03). We speculate that the elevated levels of IGFBP-3-PA in Tanner 3 diabetic boys are related to deteriorated glucose homeostasis and that it may be a compensatory mechanism to attenuate the decrease in fdIGF-I in order to partly restore insulin sensitivity and glycemic control.

- The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the diurnal variability of B-Glucose is dependent on GH, IGF-I and IGFBP-1 levels, apart from insulin, and if there is any difference between Tanner stages 3 and 5. Five boys in Tanner stage 3 and 6 boys in stage 5 with type 1 diabetes were included. Blood was continuously collected from a cubital vein for 24 h. S-Insulin, S-GH, S-IGF-I and S-IGFBP-1 were analysed. B-Glucose was analysed hourly at bedside. One week before and 1 wk after the 24-h study period the participants performed self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) during normal physiologic conditions. In the 24-h profile of B-Glucose, insulin, IGFBP-1 and GH, we found a significant positive correlation between B-Glucose and log IGFBP-1 (r = 0.5, p = 0.005) and an inverse correlation to insulin (r = -0.5, p = 0.004) but no correlation to logGH (r = -0.04, p = 0.831). In multiple regression analysis, B-Glucose was still significantly correlated to log IGFBP-1, when adjusting for insulin and GH, in Tanner stage 5. We found a difference between Tanner stages 3 and 5 in the variability of B-Glucose over a longer period during normal daily activity (p = 0.02), but not over the 24-h study period. CONCLUSION: We have demonstrated in type 1 diabetes adolescent boys a relationship between simultaneously measured blood-glucose and IGFBP-1 levels independent of the insulin and GH levels, suggesting that the free fraction of IGF-I influences the glucose metabolism.
