| Abstract | Autoantibodies and autoreactive T lymphocytes directed against several pancreatic β cell proteins such as GAD65 have been identified in the circulation before and at the onset of clinical type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes. Using GAD65 synthetic peptides, we studied the proliferative response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) either from recently diagnosed type 1 diabetic patients, of whom the majority share the disease-associated HLA class II haplotype (DR4-DQB1*0201 or DR3-DQB1*0302), or from HLA-matched control subjects. We found that 67% (14/21) of the type 1 diabetic patients and 39% (9/23) of the control subjects exhibited a positive proliferative response. Compared with control subjects, however, PBMC from diabetic patients proliferated more frequently (P < 0.05) in the presence of peptide pools from the C-terminal region of GAD65 (amino acids 379–585). Diabetic patients with the same HLA-DQ or HLA-DR alleles showed partially identical T cell reactivity, but no clear correlation could be made between MHC class II specificity and T cell epitopes because of multiple combinations of class II alleles. In addition, by flow cytometry, we studied the direct binding of GAD65 peptides to MHC class II molecules of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B (EBV-B) cells obtained from a diabetic patient. We found that 11 GAD peptides were able to bind to the highly susceptible haplotype DRB1*0301/0401-DQA1*0301/0501-DQB1*0302/0201 on the surface of EBV-B cells in partial correlation with the results obtained in the proliferation assays. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
