Minor alleles of two SNPs in intron 9 of the NRP1 gene, which encodes neuropilin-1, were found to be associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. Neuropilin-1 peptides were confined to islets in human pancreas. This suggests neuropilins-1 could influence the development of some cases of T1D in children.
