Description :
Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase AutoAb (GADA) ELISA Kit
Assay Background :
Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) autoantibodies are found in 70% to 80% of individuals
with new-onset type 1 diabetes, making it the most frequent autoantibody in autoimmune
diabetes. GAD autoantibodies can be detected in serum for many years post diagnosis, and
high concentrations of GAD autoantibodies have been considered as a marker of faster β-cell
exhaustion in these patients. Furthermore, GAD autoantibodies in non-diabetic individuals
predicts the later development of type 1 diabetes. Besides autoimmune diabetes, GAD
autoantibodies also exist in Stiff Man Syndrome, autoimmune poly-endocrinopathies, and some
of Grave’s Disease patients.
