ABSTRACT:
A 65 KD heat shock protein, proteins cross-reactive therewith, or antibodies thereto can be used for detecting in humans the existence of, a tendency to develop, or the initiation of a process leading to insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. Antibodies to hsp65 can be used to detect the hsp65 molecule in blood or urine. The hsp65 molecule of any species, or any other substance immunologically cross-reactive therewith, when administered with a tolerogenic carrier, can be used for the prevention or treatment of IDDM prior to development of clinical symptoms thereof.
