Abstract
⺠The contribution of IL27 to human type 1 diabetes susceptibility was evaluated. ⺠IL27 was genotyped in 318 T1D patients and 296 healthy controls. ⺠Eight allelic variants, including two new ones, were identified. ⺠IL27 allelic variants did not predispose to type 1 diabetes in a Brazilian cohort. ⺠The frequency of estimated haplotypes was also similar between groups.
