title: [Hypotrypsinemia in diabetes mellitus].
abstract: Plasma concentrations of immune-reactive trypsin (IRT) were determined in 212 patients with juvenile-onset, insulin-dependent diabetes (Type I) and in 158 patients with maturity onset diabetes (Type II) in comparison to 121 healthy individuals. Significantly increased IRT levels were obtained in the type I diabetics, whereas IRT concentrations were normal or increased in the type II diabetic patients. Hypotrypsinemia occurred predominantly in type I diabetics with high IgG-insulin antibodies or islet-cell antibodies. No correlation was noted between the IRT-levels and the beta-cell residual capacity in the type-I diabetics.
