Abstract
The authors have studied a single nucleotide 49A/G polymorphism of CTLA4 gene in 44 healthy residents of Kharkov, 109 individuals with latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA), 64 patients with a classical clinical form of type 1 diabetes mellitus, and 127 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It has been shown that 49A/G polymorphism of CTLA4 gene - as in type 1 diabetes mellitus - plays an important role in genetic predisposition to LADA in Ukrainian population. A more significant polymorphism association with LADA - compared with type 2 diabetes - was shown as well.
