Type 1 diabetes SIRPG risk variants increase SIRPγ expression and CD47 loss enhances CD8+ T cell cytotoxicity
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) risk variants within SIRPG influence transcript splicing and alter the expression of signal regulatory protein gamma (SIRPγ) on human T cells; however, the functional consequences of the risk variants remain poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that peripheral blood mononuclear cells from individu...
