Analysis of serum Hsp90 as a potential biomarker of β cell autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes.

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a protein chaperone that is upregulated and released from pancreatic β cells under pro-inflammatory conditions. We hypothesized that serum Hsp90 may have utility as a biomarker of type 1 diabetes risk and exhibit elevations before the onset of clinically significant...
