Autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase target epitopes dependent on residues in the N-terminal domain

Kozhakhmetova, A; Wyatt, R; Elvers, K; Emery, D; Williams, C; Annis, P; Lampasona, V; Gillespie, K; Williams, A (Coeliac UK's Research Conference, 2017-03-24)

INTRODUCTION: Tissue transglutaminase (tTG), is the main autoantigen of coeliac disease (CD). Specific tTG epitopes, including N-and C-terminal sites as well as the catalytic triad, have been reported to be targeted by ...
A quarter of patients with type 1 diabetes have co-existing non-islet autoimmunity: the findings of a UK population-based family study.

Kozhakhmetova, A; Wyatt, RC; Caygill, C; Williams, C; Long, AE; Chandler, K; Aitken, RJ; Wenzlau, JM; Davidson, HW; Gillespie, KM; Williams, AJK (Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 2018-03-24)

Individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at increased risk of coeliac disease (CD), autoimmune thyroiditis and autoimmune gastritis, but the absolute risks are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the ...
Type 1 Diabetes: Current Perspectives

Kozhakhmetova, A; Gillespie, KM (Methods in Molecular Biology, 2016)

Type 1 diabetes, resulting from the autoimmune destruction of insulin producing islet beta cells is caused by genetic and environmental determinants. Recent studies agree that counterintuitively, the major genetic ...
