  • T1DM Type 1 diabetes mellitus
  • T- cells play a central part in autoimmunity associated with TIDM. To become fully activated, these cells are believed to need at least two crucial signals.
  • the first signal is an interaction between an antigen in the groove of the MHC molecule on antigen-presenting cells with the T-cell receptor.
  • the second signal is the interaction between CD80 and CD86 on the antigen presenting cells and CD28 on the T-cells.
  • Naive T lymphocytes travel to T-cell areas of secondary lymphoid organs in search of antigen presented by antigen presenting cells (APC-s). Once activated, they proliferate vigorously, generating effector cells that can migrate to inflamed tissues to fight infection or in case of autoimmunity destroy tissues. Upon clearance of the antigen a fraction of primed/activated T lymphocytes persists as circulating memory cells that can normally confer protection and give, upon secondary challenge, an enhanced response. Two major types of memory T-cells remain: central memory cells, which patrol lymphoid organs, and effector memory cells that act as sentinels in peripheral tissues such as the skin and the gut.
  • APC-s antigen presenting cells
  • Type 1 diabetes autoimmunity is driven by activated T-lymphocytes.
  • Abatacept is a co-stimulation modulator and blocks full T-lymphocyte activation.
  • the effect of two-year administration of abatacept in a randomized double-masked trial in recently diagnosed TIDM patients has been evaluated.
  • Preliminary results from this trial have been published as an article entitled "Co-stimulation modulation with abatacept in patients with recent-onset Type 1 diabetes: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial" in The Lancet (published online June 28, 2011). This paper is included as Appendix A and is part of the presently filed application.

  • CD4 T-cell naive (CD45RO- CD62L+) to central memory (CD45RO+CD62L+) subpopulation ratios increased significantly from baseline during treatment and then returned to baseline after the therapy concluded.
  • the treatment with abatacept was also found to significantly slow the decline of C-peptide by reducing the levels of CD4 T central memory (CD45RO+CD62L+) cells.
  • Abatacept exert its effect on autoimmunity by reducing CD4 central memory T-cells levels as it blocks CD4 naive to CD4 central memory T-cell activation process
  • This biomarker can also be used in the absence of a compound such as abatacept for the diagnosis of progressivness of diabetes or pre-diabetes (in conjunction with diabetes antibodies) as well as to determine the susceptibility to fast progressing diabetes mellitus. This marker can monitor the intensity and aggressiveness of autoimmune destruction, the speed of loss of the insulin-secreting ⁇ -cells.
  • C-peptide is a 31 amino acid peptide that acts as a structural connection in proinsulin. It is released into circulation along with insulin when the proinsulin is enzymatically cleaved. Thus, low to undetectable levels of C-peptide are found in T1DM while T2DM patients earlier in their disease often have higher than normal insulin/C-peptide level.
  • C-peptide levels can be several reference ranges for C-peptide levels dependent upon factors such as the type of assay used, patient age, and whether or not a patient has fasted prior to the test.
  • Any known assay method may be used to quantify C-peptide such as the radioimmuno assay (RIA) and immunochemiluminometric assay (ICMA).
  • RIA radioimmuno assay
  • ICMA immunochemiluminometric assay
  • C-peptide can be measured using goat anti-C-peptide.
  • the antibody which also recognizes proinsulin, has no cross-reactivity with insulin.
  • the analytic sensitivity of the test is generally 0.125 ng/ml and an overnight fast is required.
  • the RIA method provides a reference range for normal adults of 0.5 - 2 ng/mL.
  • ICMA In the ICMA method, a competitive immunoassay having two incubation cycles is used to provide an analytic sensitivity of approximately 0.3 ng/mL.
  • the ICMA method provides a reference range for normal adults of 0.9 - 4 ng/mL and the patient must be fasting. For children less than 12 years old, the reference range is 0.0 to 0.3 ng/mL. For children 10 - 12 years, the reference range is 0.4 to 3.3 ng/mL and for individuals 17 years and up. (LABCORP).

  • Flow cytometry is a routine technique for counting and examining microscopic particles, such as cells, by suspending them in a stream of fluid and passing them one cell at the time by laser and an electronic detection apparatus.
  • Modern instruments usually have multiple lasers and fluorescence detectors. Increasing the number of lasers and detectors allows for multiple antibody labeling, and can more precisely identify a target population by their phenotypic markers.

  • FACS provides a method for sorting a heterogeneous mixture of biological cells into two or more containers, one cell at a time, based upon the specific light scattering and fluorescent characteristics of each cell and characterizing them. It is a useful scientific instrument, as it provides fast, objective and quantitative recording of fluorescent signals from individual cells as well as physical separation of cells of particular interest.
