The analysis of covariance demonstrated no difference between glycosylated hemoglobin, body mass index, duration of diabetes, C-peptide, and GAD-Ab titer between the group carrying GC/CC and the group without allele C. In conclusion, the -1123G>C promoter polymorphism of PTPN22 gene, but not the +1858C>T variant, is associated with LADA in adult Chinese Hans.
