Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus • Characterized by absolute insulin deficiency • Pathophysiology and etiology • Result of pancreatic beta cell destruction • Prone to ketosis • Total deficit of circulating insulin • Autoimmune • Idiopathic
Type 1 Diabetes Inflammation FasL IFNg TNFa • Betacell destruction • Usually leading to absolute insulin deficiency • Immune mediated • Idiopathic T cell Autoimmune Reaction Macrophage Class IMHC TNFa Class IIMHC IL-1 Beta cell NO CD8+ T cell Dendritic cell Betacell Destruction Maahs DM, et al.EndocrinolMetabClin North Am. 2010;39:481-497.
Pathophysiology of T1DM • Chronic autoimmune disorder occurring in genetically susceptible individuals • May be precipitated by environmental factors • Immune system is triggered to develop an autoimmune response against • Altered pancreatic beta cell antigens • Molecules in beta cells that resemble a viral protein • ~ 85% of T1DM patients have circulating islet cell antibodies • Majority also have detectable anti-insulin antibodies • Most islet cell antibodies are directed against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) within pancreatic beta cells Maahs DM, et al.EndocrinolMetabClin North Am. 2010;39:481-497.

Rising Incidence of T1DM Associated With Altered Immunophenotype at Diagnosis • Prevalence of IA-2A and ZnT8A has increased significantly, mirrored by raised levels of IA-2A, ZnT8A, and IA-2β autoantibodies (IA-2βA) • IAA and GADA prevalence and levels have not changed • Increases in IA-2A, ZnT8A, and IA-2βA at diagnosis during a period of rising incidence suggest that the process leading to type 1 diabetes is now characterized by a more intense humoral autoimmune response • Autoantibodies to insulin, IAA; GAD, GADA; islet antigen-2, IA-2A; zinc transporter 8, ZnT8A. • Long AE, et al.
