Abstract
The incidence and levels of autoantibodies to Langerhans islet cell antigens (ICA) were studied in 261 children of patients with type I diabetes mellitus. ICA were detected in 14.8%) (19/128) clinically healthy siblings and 7.5% (10/133) children one of whose parents suffered from diabetes. 8.6%) children of diabetic fathers and 6.7%> children of diabetic mothers were ICA-positive. Age-associated regularities in ICA incidence in the examined groups were determined. Twenty-eight ICA-positive children were examined repeatedly after 11-21 months in order to evaluate the time course of the autoimmune process. More dynamic course of the process, which manifested by fluctuations in ICA levels, was observed in the siblings.
