    This study introduces methods for analyzing human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype sharing in affected sibling trios and pairs. Findings support genetic heterogeneity in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) inheritance.

    Area of Science:

    • Genetics
    • Immunogenetics
    • Disease Inheritance

    Background:

    • The classical sib pair method analyzes human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype sharing to infer disease inheritance.
    • This method assumes a single HLA-linked locus influences disease predisposition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present expected HLA haplotype sharing distributions for affected sib trios and sib pairs from families with multiple affected individuals.
    • To enable comparison of sib trio analyses with classical sib pair methods.
    • To allow parameter estimation for general disease models using sib trio data.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed expected HLA haplotype sharing distributions for affected sib trios and sib pairs.
    • Applied these distributions to analyze Caucasian insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) data.

  • Compared sib trio data with single susceptibility allele expectations.
  • Main Results:

    • Sib trio analyses for a two-susceptibility allele model (negative complementation), relevant to IDDM, fall outside single susceptibility expectations.
    • Sib pair haplotype sharing values remain within single susceptibility allele expectations.
    • Analysis of Caucasian IDDM data supports genetic heterogeneity.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed methods provide a basis for investigating complex genetic models of disease.
    • Findings suggest that IDDM inheritance may involve multiple susceptibility loci.
    • This work highlights the importance of considering genetic heterogeneity in complex diseases like IDDM.
