Overview of the Anti-GAD Antibodies (For Type I Diabetes) Test
Type I diabetes results from the dysfunction of beta 2 cells of the pancreas, which causes decreased production of insulin. Insulin is essential for the absorption and utilisation of glucose by the cells in the body. Type I diabetes typically develops in childhood; however, a similar type of abnormality occurs in adulthood called latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is an enzyme that is also required for the functioning of the pancreas cells. However, sometimes the body produces antibodies against GAD, which are the cause of LADA.
