Context: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with autoimmune thyroid disease (AIT), celiac disease (CD), Addison's disease (AD) and other autoimmune diseases. These diseases can occur together in defined syndromes with distinct pathophysiology and characteristics Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome I (APS-I), Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome II (APS-II) and the Immunodysregulation polyendocrinopathy enteropathy X-linked syndrome (IPEX).
Evidence acquisition: Review of the medical literature was performed with particular attention to the natural history, genetic factors and syndromes associated with T1D, AIT, CD and AD.
Evidence synthesis: Genetic risk for these diseases overlaps and includes genes within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) such as the human leukocyte antigens (HLA) DR and DQ alleles and the major histocompatibility complex I related gene A (MIC-A). Other genes outside of the MHC have been associated with these autoimmune diseases including the gene encoding the lymphoid tyrosine phosphatase (PTPN22) and the Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene.
Conclusion: Genetic risk for type 1 diabetes overlaps with AIT, CD and AD. Disease risk is associated with organ specific autoantibodies, which can be used to screen subjects with T1D.
