| Abstract: | Examination of transmission of the diabetogenic supratype B18 BfF1 DR3 revealed that this supratype is inherited more frequently than expected from fathers. These data suggest an explanation for increased susceptibility to development and earlier onset of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus in offspring of diabetic fathers. |
