The problem of the HLA association of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes was re-examined by testing Class II antigenic specificities detectable by radioimmunoassay. Established (DRw53, DQw1, DQw2, DQw3) as well as newly described (DC5, DCalpha3) specificities were typed. The data obtained suggest that the association with DR3 and DR4 is secondary to that with DQ specificities in linkage disequilibrium with DR3 and DR4.
