Objective: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are associated with diabetes, but their role in fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is unclear. Thus, we characterized the role of circRNAs in FT1D.

Research design and methods: CircRNA expression profiles were detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of five FT1D patients and five controls using a circRNA microarray. An independent cohort comprised of 40 FT1D cases, 75 type 1 diabetes (T1D) cases, and 115 controls was used to verify the circRNAs using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Spearman's correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed to determine the clinical diagnostic capability of circRNAs. Bioinformatics was used to identify potential biological functions and circRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions.

Results: There were 13 upregulated and 13 downregulated circRNAs in PBMCs of patients with FT1D. Five circRNAs were further verified in a second cohort. Hsa_circRNA_100632 was significantly upregulated in the FT1D and T1D groups. Hsa_circRNA_100632 was differentiated between patients with FT1D and controls [area under the curve (AUC) 0.846; 95% CI 0.776-0.916; P<0.0001] as well as between patients with FT1D and patients with T1D (AUC 0.726; 95% CI 0.633-0.820; P<0.0001). Bioinformatics analysis showed that hsa_circRNA_100632 may be involved in 47 circRNA-miRNA-mRNA signaling pathways associated with diabetes.

Conclusions: CircRNAs were aberrantly expressed in PBMCs of patients with FT1D, and hsa_circRNA_100632 may be a diagnostic marker of FT1D.
