Abstract

<p>Development of a simultaneous detection method for GAD and IA-2 antibodiesTomoharu Kawano, Satoshi Numata, Akio Kuroda, Tetsuyuki Yasuda, Kazuyuki Miyashita,Fumie Sakamoto, Naoto Katakami, Takaaki Matsuoka, Munehide Matsuhisa and Seiichi HashidaSummaryObjective: Detection of pancreatic islet-associated autoantibodies (GAD antibody, IA-2 antibody) is useful for diagnosis of type 1 diabetes and prediction of onset. However, since each antibody has a high positive rate depending on age of onset and duration of disease, single antibody detection may misidentify positive individuals. Therefore, a simultaneous detection method for GAD and IA-2 antibodies was developed and reported.Methods: The simultaneous detection method was verified using model serum (24 specimens) prepared from positive serum and serum of diabetic patients (28 specimens). For detection of GAD and IA-2 antibodies, an ultra-sensitive ELISA (ICT-EIA) method was used.Results and Conclusion: In model serum, the measured/expected ratio was 71-136% with a predictive value of 24/24 (100%) by the simultaneous detection method. Further, this method showed higher values of sensitivity (57.1%) and specificity (100%) in sera of type 1 diabetic patients compared to single measurement of GAD antibody and IA-2 antibody. Furthermore, the predictive value for positive and negative obtained by two independent measurements was 28/28 (100%). Specimens that were positive for either one or two antibodies could be judged as positive using this simultaneous detection method, indicating its usefulness.</p>
