Genetic association of T1D stratified by HLA DR3 and DR4 status reveals heterogeneity in pathways of progression to T1D
Background There are substantial differences in the clinical presentation of type 1 diabetes (T1D) depending on the first-developing autoantibody, although the underlying mechanisms are poorly underst...

Interesting finding from @ambermluckett.bsky.social - the non-HLA GWAS of HLA DR3+ and DR4+ type 1 diabetes are surprisingly different (coheritability is only 0.68). Some evidence of less adaptive (CD4) and more innate (mast cell) enrichment in DR3 genetics. #eshg2025
