Human monoclonal islet specific autoantibodies share features of islet cell and 64 kDa antibodies [PDF]
The first human monoclonal islet cell antibodies of the IgG class (MICA 1-6) obtained from an individual with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus were cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies selected by the indirect immunofluorescence test on pancreas

Glutamate, Ornithine, Arginine, Proline, and Polyamine Metabolic Interactions: The Pathway Is Regulated at the Post-Transcriptional Level [PDF]
The metabolism of glutamate into ornithine, arginine, proline, and polyamines is a major network of nitrogen-metabolizing pathways in plants, which also produces intermediates like nitric oxide, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that play critical roles in ...

Association between Antibodies to the MR 67,000 Isoform of Glutamate Decarboxylase (GAD) and Type 1 (Insulin-Dependent) Diabetes Mellitus with Coexisting Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome Type II [PDF]
By using an immunoprecipitation assay, we analysed reactivity of autoantibodies to human recombinant GAD65 and GAD67 in sera from patients with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome Type II (APS II) with and without Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes ...

Bi-allelic GAD1 variants cause a neonatal onset syndromic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. [PDF]
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies are a heterogeneous group of early-onset epilepsy syndromes dramatically impairing neurodevelopment. Modern genomic technologies have revealed a number of monogenic origins and opened the door to therapeutic ...

Limbic autoimmune encephalitis with antibodies to glutamate decarboxylase (GAD)
Limbic encephalitis (LE) is a rare neurological syndrome, in most cases has a paraneoplastic nature, but recently there has been a large number of observations of idiopathic autoimmune LE associated with antibodies to neuronal membrane proteins.

Cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies recognize distinct islet antigens in IDDM but not in stiff man syndrome [PDF]
Cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies are well-established predictive markers of IDDM. Although target molecules of ICA have been suggested to be gangliosides, human monoclonal ICA of the immunoglobulin G class (MICA 1-6) produced from a patient with newly ...
