AIMS/INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to investigate the dynamics associated with autoantibodies to insulinoma-associated antigen-2 (IA-2A) and zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8A) relating to the onset age and disease duration in patients with type 1 diabetes. METHODS: Using bridging-type enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, IA-2A, ZnT8A and glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies were evaluated in 269 patients with type 1 diabetes (median onset age 18.2 years, range 0.8-86 years; median diabetes duration 7 years, range 0-58 years). We then compared the prevalence of these autoantibodies among the different age groups, along with the duration of diabetes using the Cochran-Armitage trend test and multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The prevalence of IA-2A, ZnT8A and glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies in patients with duration of ≤3 years was 41.1, 36.7 and 72.2%, respectively, with 80.0% expressing one or more of these autoantibodies. This prevalence declined according to the disease duration (P < 0.005). Both IA-2A and ZnT8A were more frequently observed in younger patients, whereas glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies was more common in older patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was a significant interaction between the onset age and duration of diabetes in patients diagnosed when aged ≤10 years regarding all anti-islet autoantibodies (P < 0.05). However, for patients diagnosed in the middle tertile (aged 11-30 years), the interaction was significant only for ZnT8A, and for those with late-onset diabetes (aged ≥31 years) only for IA-2A. CONCLUSIONS: The current study showed that the rate of disappearance of anti-islet autoantibodies is faster in patients aged ≤10 years, and that even though both proteins are localized in the insulin granule membrane, humoral autoimmunity to IA-2 and ZnT8 differs according to the age of onset.
