Linda Wicker and colleagues examine the effect of SNPs in the IL2RA region, previously associated to type 1 diabetes, on CD25 protein expression on the cell surface of primary immune cells from donors within the Cambridge BioResource. They demonstrate the value of using fresh primary cells from a large bioresource of genotype-selectable healthy volunteers.
