Platelet associated IgG (PA IgG) in patients with insulin dependent (type 1) diabetes mellitus.
Increased levels of Platelet Associated IgG have been found in 30% of patients with insulin dependent (type 1) diabetes mellitus, closely associated with the simultaneous presence in the serum of insulin antibodies and immune complexes. It is suggested that the increase in PA IgG levels may be of importance in the occurrence of the platelet abnormalities observed in diabetes mellitus.
