Two families in which insulin-dependent diabetes was associated with coeliac disease were studied. All patients had the HLA B 8 antigens. In one case there was an association of HLA B 8 with BW 15. The HLA B 8 determinant was found in that of the parents with a familial diabetic trait. These findings contribute to replace the association diabetes-coeliac disease in the larger frame of auto-immune diseases.
