Improved prediction of symptomatic type 1 diabetes using a luciferase‐based assay to measure (pro)insulin autoantibodies

Diabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Introduction Insulin autoantibodies (IAA) are key predictors of type 1 diabetes, particularly in young children. Micro‐radiobinding assays (RBA) are the gold standard for IAA measurement but have limitations. We assessed whether a luciferase immunoprecipitation system (LIPS) assay improved diabetes risk assessment.
