Overview

What is ISLET CELL ANTIBODY

Your body’s pancreas contains a range of cells known as islet cells, which emit particular hormones. Insulin is released by the beta subtype of cells, lowering blood sugar and glucose levels. When antibodies against islet cells develop, your own pancreatic cells are destroyed, leading to autoimmune issues and Type 1 diabetes. A risk factor for Type 1 diabetes is the presence of islet cell antibodies in the blood. This test aids in distinguishing between diabetes type 1 and type 2.
