Journal ArticleDOI

The geoepidemiology of type 1 diabetes

TL;DR: The declining proportion of newly diagnosed children with high-risk genotypes suggests that environmental pressures are now able to trigger T1D in genotypes that previously would not have developed the disease during childhood, but the findings are too inconsistent to allow firm conclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification by molecular cloning of an autoantigen associated with Addison's disease as steroid 17α-hydroxylase

TL;DR: The results show that one of the key enzymes in steroid biosynthesis, 17 alpha-hydroxylase, is an autoantigen involved in the pathogenesis of adrenocortical failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autoantibodies to cytochrome P450 enzymes P450scc, P450c17, and P450c21 in autoimmune polyglandular disease types I and II and in isolated Addison's disease

TL;DR: Immunofluorescence studies showed good correlation with the known fact that the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex is devoid of the P450c17, that the Leydig cells of the testis and the theca interna cells ofThe ovary express P450 c17 and P450scc, and that the placental trophoblasts express only P450 scc.
