Autoimmunity is the main cause of diabetes type 1 and an important factor as cause of Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA). Recently, research has found that being deficient of T-reg cells is an important cause of autoimmunity. The study hypothesis are:
Research has worked out that b-cells are being destroyed by cytokines released from inflammatory cells. One hypothesis in that T-reg is a cause of autoimmunity, and that T-reg concentrations are low in patients with newly diagnosed diabetes type 1.
Blood samples will be taken from 10 patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) and type 1 diabetes older than 10 years and the same amount of samples from healthy, age- and sex-matched blood donors. Markers of autoimmune diabetes will be analyzed.
