PG - 189-196 LID - 10.1007/s00592-021-01778-8 [doi] AB - AIMS: To assess the prevalence of diabetes-associated autoantibodies in Chinese patients recently diagnosed with adult-onset diabetes and to evaluate the potential role of the autoantibody markers for characterization of disease phenotype in the patient population. METHODS: The study included 1273 recent-onset adult patients with phenotypic type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Serum samples were tested using the 3-Screen ICA ELISA (3-Screen) designed for combined measurement of GADAb and/or IA-2Ab and/or ZnT8Ab. 3-Screen positive samples were then tested for individual diabetes-associated and other organ-specific autoantibodies. Clinical characteristics of patients positive and negative in 3-Screen were analysed. RESULTS: Forty-four (3.5%) of the T2DM patients were positive in 3-Screen, and 38 (86%) of these were also positive for at least one of GADAb, IA-2Ab and ZnT8Ab in assays for the individual autoantibodies. 3-Screen positive patients had lower BMI, higher HbA1c, lower fasting insulin levels and lower fasting C-peptide levels compared to 3-Screen negative patients. Analysis using a homeostatic model assessment (HOMA2) indicated that HOMA2-beta-cell function was significantly lower for the forty-four 3-Screen positive patients compared to 3-Screen negative patients. Twenty (45%) 3-Screen positive patients were also positive for at least one thyroid autoantibody. CONCLUSIONS: The 3-Screen ELISA has been used successfully for the first time in China to detect diabetes autoantibodies in patients with phenotypic T2DM. 3-Screen positive patients presented with poorer beta cell function.
