Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate CD8 + T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire differences between patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes or healthy controls.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Using a systems biology approach by combining high-throughput sequencing, cytometry, gene expression, transcriptome profiling, HLA typing, single cell analysis, and TCR affinity assays, the investigators will define a set of immune metrics for the prediction or early diagnosis of disease that is superior to the current examination of auto-antibodies, which is a fairly late stage in the disease development. This can also be used to guide therapy in advanced disease.
