Antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) in non-obese Japanese diabetics without insulin therapy: a comparison of two commercial RIA kits based on recombinant and pig brain GAD

To compare the clinical usefulness of commercial radioimmunoassay (RIA) kits based on recombinant and pig brain GAD, we measured glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody (GADAb) titers in 125 non-obese (body mass index
