Brief Summary: Type 1 diabetes is a condition that is caused in part by an abnormality of the immune system which occurs when T cells which are part of the immune system damage the insulin secreting cells islet cells in the pancreas Although it is known that T cells are important mediators of the disease progress in the development of reliable T cell assays has been modest The purpose of this study is to learn which T cell assays are most reliable and reproducible so that the investigators can improve their understanding about how type 1 diabetes occurs
Detailed Description: The T Cell Validation Study is designed to determine the ability of T cell assays to identify differences in responses from participants with type 1 diabetes compared to normal control subjects and to compare four different laboratory tests which examine T cells to determine whether the measurements are quantitatively reproducible

Antibody assays that confirm the presence of type 1 diabetes will be evaluated including Diabetes Biochemical Autoantibody Assay anti-GAD65 anti-ICA512 anti-insulin and Islet Cell Autoantibody testing genetic testing deoxyribonucleic acid DNA and human leukocyte antigen HLA will also be done to learn more about the T cell assays

The following T Cell Assays will be conducted in individuals with type 1 diabetes as well as those without type 1 diabetes

Cellular Immunoblot Testing
T Cell Proliferation Assay
Tetramer Assay
Cytokine ELISpot Assay
