Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore associations of HLA class II genes (HLAII) with the progression of islet autoimmunity from asymptomatic to symptomatic type 1 diabetes (T1D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Next-generation targeted sequencing was used to genotype eight HLAII genes (DQA1, DQB1, DRB1, DRB3, DRB4, DRB5, DPA1, DPB1) in 1,216 participants from the Diabetes Prevention Trial-1 and Randomized Diabetes Prevention Trial with Oral Insulin sponsored by TrialNet. By the linkage disequilibrium, DQA1 and DQB1 are haplotyped to form DQ haplotypes; DP and DR haplotypes are similarly constructed. Together with available clinical covariables, we applied the Cox regression model to assess HLAII immunogenic associations with the disease progression. RESULTS First, the current investigation updated the previously reported genetic associations of DQA1*03:01-DQB1*03:02 (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.25, P = 3.50*10-3) and DQA1*03:03-DQB1*03:01 (HR = 0.56, P = 1.16*10-3), and also uncovered a risk association with DQA1*05:01-DQB1*02:01 (HR = 1.19, P = 0.041). Second, after adjusting for DQ, DPA1*02:01-DPB1*11:01 and DPA1*01:03-DPB1*03:01 were found to have opposite associations with progression (HR = 1.98 and 0.70, P = 0.021 and 6.16*10-3, respectively). Third, DRB1*03:01-DRB3*01:01 and DRB1*03:01-DRB3*02:02, sharing the DRB1*03:01, had opposite associations (HR = 0.73 and 1.44, P = 0.04 and 0.019, respectively), indicating a role of DRB3. Meanwhile, DRB1*12:01-DRB3*02:02 and DRB1*01:03 alone were found to associate with progression (HR = 2.6 and 2.32, P = 0.018 and 0.039, respectively). Fourth, through enumerating all heterodimers, it was found that both DQ and DP could exhibit associations with disease progression. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that HLAII polymorphisms influence progression from islet autoimmunity to T1D among at-risk subjects with islet autoantibodies.

Abstract
ABCC8 gene mutations with different inheritance patterns have been well described to cause transient and permanent forms of neonatal diabetes with onset of hyperglycemia commonly before the age of 6 months, and rare cases between 6 and 12 months. However, recent analyses have also demonstrated ABCC8 gene mutations in patients with monogenic diabetes (maturity onset diabetes of the young, MODY), with milder clinical phenotypes and later onset of hyperglycemia. We report two siblings with diabetes mellitus due to a novel homozygous p.(Phe1068Ile) (c.3202T>A) missense mutation of the ABCC8 gene, but significantly different phenotypes. The index case was diagnosed with diabetes due to an incidental finding of hyperglycemia at the age of 3 years, while her younger sibling presented with severe hyperglycemia and hyperosmolar dehydration at the age of 10 weeks. The possibility of a significant discordance in the correlation between genotype and phenotype needs to be taken into account when ABCC8 mutation dependent diabetes occurs within the same family. Genetic screening in children with diabetes from consanguineous family needs consideration, especially in case of negative autoantibodies and early onset of hyperglycemia.

Abstract
Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is the term commonly used to describe diabetes with onset before 6 months-of-age. It occurs in approximately one out of every 100,000-300,000 live births. Although this term encompasses diabetes of any etiology, it is recognized that NDM diagnosed before 6 months-of-age is most often monogenic in nature. Clinically, NDM subgroups include transient (TNDM) and permanent NDM (PNDM), as well as syndromic cases of NDM. TNDM often develops within the first few weeks of life and remits by a few months of age. However, relapse occurs in 50% of cases, typically in adolescence or adulthood. TNDM is most frequently caused by abnormalities in the imprinted region of chromosome 6q24, leading to overexpression of paternally derived genes. Mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8, encoding the two subunits of the adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel on the β-cell membrane, can cause TNDM, but more often result in PNDM. NDM as a result of mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8 often responds to sulfonylureas, allowing transition from insulin therapy. Mutations in other genes important to β-cell function and regulation, and in the insulin gene itself, also cause NDM. In 40% of NDM cases, the genetic cause remains unknown. Correctly identifying monogenic NDM has important implications for appropriate treatment, expected disease course and associated conditions, and genetic testing for at-risk family members. Early recognition of monogenic NDM allows for the implementation of appropriate therapy, leading to improved outcomes and potential societal cost savings.

Abstract
Neonatal diabetes mellitus occurs in approximately 1 out of every 100,000 live births. It can be either permanent or transient, and recent studies indicate that is likely to have an underlying genetic cause, particularly when diagnosed before 6 months of age. Permanent neonatal diabetes is most commonly due to activating mutations in either of the genes encoding the two subunits of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel. In most of these patients, switching from insulin to oral sulfonylurea therapy leads to improved metabolic control, as well as possible amelioration of occasional associated neurodevelopmental disabilities. It remains to be determined what is the most appropriate treatment of other causes. The diagnosis and treatment of neonatal diabetes, therefore, represents a model for personalized medicine.

Abstract
Neonatal diabetes mellitus is a rare entity defined as hyperglycaemia occurring within the first 3 months of life that lasts for at least 2 weeks and requiring insulin therapy for unforeseeable duration. We report the case of a full-term female infant with permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus, stemming from consanguineous parents, born with severe intra-uterine growth retardation and birth weight of 1400 g. The patient presented on the 15th day of life a severe dehydration with a fever and ponderal loss of 14 %. The biology showed hyperglycaemia to 15 mmol/L, moderate metabolic acidosis, glucosuria and ketonuria. The diagnosis of neonatal diabetes mellitus was reserved, justifying its stake under insulin. Etiologic investigation showed a type HLA-DR4/DR8; anti-insulin antibodies were weakly positive, Langerhans islet cell and anti-GAD antibodies were negative. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging scans, karyotype, molecular biology and chromatography of amino and organic acids did not show any abnormalities. During the first 2 years of age, the patient presented a big instability of glycaemia having required several hospitalizations. After 12 years of age, the patient is still under insulin with a satisfactory glycaemia balance and her growth is normal. Besides, she presents a microcephaly with a spastic walking. The search of neonatal diabetes mellitus must be systematic in front of any fetal hypotrophy allowing a premature coverage and a good prognosis.

Abstract
Transient and permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM and PNDM) are rare conditions occurring in around 1 per 300,000 live births. In TNDM, growth-retarded infants develop diabetes in the first few weeks of life, only to go into remission after a few months with possible relapse to permanent diabetes usually around adolescence or in adulthood. In PNDM, insulin secretory failure occurs in the late fetal or early postnatal period. The very recently elucidated mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes, encoding the Kir6.2 and SUR1 subunits of the pancreatic K(ATP) channel involved in regulation of insulin secretion, account for a third to a half of the PNDM cases. Molecular analysis of chromosome 6 anomalies and the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes encoding Kir6.2 and SUR1 provides a tool for distinguishing transient from permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus in the neonatal period. Some patients (those with mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8) may be transferred from insulin therapy to sulphonylureas.

Abstract
Transient (TNDM) and Permanent (PNDM) Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus are rare conditions occurring in about 1: 300,000 live births. In TNDM growth retarded infants develop diabetes in the first few weeks of life only to go into remission in a few months with possible relapse to a permanent diabetes state usually around adolescence or as adults. We believe that pancreatic dysfunction in this condition is maintained throughout life with relapse initiated at times of metabolic stress such as puberty or pregnancy. In PNDM, insulin secretory failure occurs in the late fetal or early postnatal period. A number of conditions are associated with PNDM, some of which have been elucidated at the molecular levels. Among those, the very recently elucidated mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8 gene, encoding the Kir6.2 and SUR1 subunit of the pancreatic K(ATP) channel involved in regulation of insulin secretion accounts for one third to a half of the PNDM cases. Patients with TNDM are more likely to have intrauterine growth retardation and less likely to develop ketoacidosis than patients with PNDM. In TNDM, patients are younger at the diagnosis of diabetes and have lower initial insulin requirements. Considerable overlap occurs between the two groups, so that TNDM cannot be distinguished from PNDM based on clinical features. Very early onset diabetes mellitus seems to be unrelated to autoimmunity in most instances. Recurrent diabetes is common in patients with "transient" neonatal diabetes mellitus and, consequently, prolonged follow-up is imperative. Molecular analysis of chromosome 6 anomalies, the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes encoding Kir6.2 and SUR1 provide a tool to identify transient from permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus in the neonatal period. This analysis also has potentially important therapeutic consequences leading to transfer some patients, those with mutations in KCNJ11 and ABCC8 from insulin therapy to sulfonylureas. Realizing how difficult it is to take care of a child of this age with diabetes mellitus should prompt clinicians to transfer these children to specialized centers. Insulin therapy and high caloric intake are the basis of the treatment. Insulin pump may offer an interesting therapeutic tool in this age group in experienced hands.

Abstract
Transient (TNDM) and permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) are rare conditions occurring in one in 400,000-500,000 live births. In TNDM, growth-retarded infants develop diabetes in the first few weeks of life only to go into remission in a few months with later relapse as permanent type 2 diabetes, often around the time of adolescence. We believe that pancreatic dysfunction in this condition is maintained throughout life with relapse initiated at times of metabolic stress such as puberty or pregnancy. The mechanisms involved in this rare condition may inform on fetal pancreatic development, islet cell physiology and predisposition to type 2 diabetes. In PNDM, insulin secretory failure occurs in the early postnatal period. A number of conditions are associated with PNDM, some of which have been elucidated at the molecular level. Insulin therapy is difficult to manage in the neonatal period, and in experienced hands, the insulin pump may provide a valuable tool to administer insulin.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Class II HLA antigens were investigated in a group of 28 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and 218 healthy unrelated persons (control group) from Vojvodina. MATERIAL AND METHODS We used a modified two-colour immunofluorescence method (serologic technique) to determine the phenotype of DR and DQ locus HlA antigens. Phenotype frequencies of class II HLA antigens were determined in both investigated groups and were used for calculating relative risk (RR). If RR was higher than 1, we calculated the population attributable risk (EF), and if RR was lower than 1, we calculated the preventive fraction (PF). Investigation of statistically significant differences in frequencies of class II HLA antigens in patients and control group was performed by using chi 2 test. RESULTS Results of investigation showed that values of RR were higher than 1 for HLA DR4 (2,808), DR10 (1,116) and DQ3 (1,386), while we noticed a statistically significant difference in frequencies of HLA DR4 (chi 2 test: 4,805) in patients regarding control group. HLA DQ1 antigen has a preventive role in development of IDDM due to highest value of PF (0,314). CONCLUSION Results of our investigation confirm that there is an association of HLA DR4 with IDDM in population of Vojvodina. High values of relative risk of IDDM, noticed in persons with HLA-DR4 antigen, point to the degree of risk of IDDM, which is a disease with great socioeconomic importance in Vojvodina.

Abstract
Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is defined as hyperglycemia occurring in the first few weeks of life. It can be either transient (TNDM) or permanent (PNDM). A 25 days old newborn was brought to the hospital with restlessness, respiratory depression and cyanosis. He was born at term with a birth weight of 2,000 g. There was no consanguinity between his parents. His physical examination findings were as follows: Weight and height were under 3th percentile, he was hypoactive and dehydrated. Serum glucose level was 800 mg/dl; C-peptide was 0.41 ng/ml. Upon investigation for dyslipidemia in association with his neonatal diabetes, hyperchylomicronemia was found both in the patient and his father. Pancreatitis, anemia and cholestasis were also observed. Insulin treatment was started for his diabetes together with a special diet for dyslipidemia. At the end of 28 months of follow-up, dyslipidemia has resolved but the need for insulin therapy was still existing. However, TNDM was considered in differential diagnosis because he was small for gestational age (SGA) at birth and his symptoms had started at the 25th day of the neonatal period. Delayed recovery from insulin dependency brought out the possibility of PNDM. Furthermore, neonatal diabetes combined with hypechylomicronemia is a rare clinical picture. Reported cases of NDM with different clinical evaluation will help to better understanding of this disorder.

Abstract
Insulin-dependent neonatal diabetes (ND) mellitus is uncommon with a frequency of 1/500,000 neonates in Europe. ND is characterised by hyperglycaemia, very low or undetectable insulin levels associated with intrauterine growth retardation and malformations. HLA haplotypes of juvenile diabetes or autoimmunity are not present in ND patients. Sporadic and familial forms are observed. ND could be persistent (PND) or transient (TND). Diabetes relapses occur in approximately 40% of TND patients. Hypothesis for ND aetiology such as pancreatic or beta pancreatic islets of Langerhans immaturity or abnormalities of pancreas organogenesis are postulated. Different genetic basis underlie transient or permanent forms though their clinical features do not allow to distinguish them. TND may in about 20-30% of the cases be associated with chromosome 6 paternal uniparental disomy. A candidate locus for an imprinted gene is mapped to 6q24. The permanent forms are less understood. Homozygous mutations of the IPF1/PDX1 (MODY4) and of the Glucokinase (GK, MODY2) genes have been reported. The association of a ND with a macroglossia should be a strong indicator for genetic testing. The genetic findings of a paternal disomy uniparental allows the prediction of a transient rather than a permanent form. Mutation in the Glucokinase gene should be sought in an infant with ND whose first degree relatives have glucose intolerance.

Abstract
This communication reports the identification of a new allele HLA-DRB1*03 in three members of a Caucasian Spanish family. The new allele has been officially named HLA-DRB1*0318 by the World Health Organization Nomenclature Committee. The exon 2 sequence of this new allele is identical to that of DRB1*03011 except for the first nucleotide of codon 45. The nucleotide change (C replacing G) leads to the amino acid substitution of glycine to arginine (GGG-->CGG) at position 45. This position of the beta1 domain shows very little polymorphism among DRB1* alleles (nucleotide changes at this position have only been reported for DRB1*1436 and DRB1*0105) and locates in the vicinity of the highly polymorphic position 47, which is a constituent of the groove's pocket interacting with the amino acid position 7 of the antigen peptide. The familial study showed that the new allele was maternally transmitted into the HLA-A*3002, -B*1801, -Cw*0501, -DRB1*0318, -DRB3*0202, -DQB1*0201 haplotype. Interestingly, the two siblings of the family, which were HLA identical and suffered of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), were carriers of the two HLA haplotypes (DRB1*03/DQB1*0201 and DRB1*04/DQB1*0302) reported as susceptibility markers to IDDM in Caucasians.
