Circulating circular RNA profiles associated with celiac disease seropositivity in children with type 1 diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The frequency of celiac disease autoantibody (CDAb) positivity in type 1 diabetes (T1D) has increased due to unclear mechanisms, including autoimmune injury. Circular ribonucleic acids (circRNAs) participate in autoimmune diseases, but the roles of circRNAs in T1D with CDAbs are currently unknown. This study aimed to determine the frequency of CDAbs in Chinese children with T1D and describe the relationship between CDAbs and circRNAs.

Materials and methods

Eighty patients diagnosed with T1D were screened for CDAbs and CD-predisposing genes, and circRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected from 47 patients. The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was searched for candidate circRNAs in related studies on T1D PBMCs. Data on clinical char
