About Mike Christie
Dr Christie obtained a BSc degree in Biochemistry at University College London in 1978. He joined Dr Steve Ashcroft and Prof Sir Philip Randle at the University of Oxford, where he acquired an interest in the pathophysiology of the pancreatic beta cell. For his PhD, Dr Christie studied the role of calmodulin and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases in the regulation of insulin secretion. In 1985 he moved to the Hagedorn Research Laboratories, Copenhagen, with Steinunn Baekkeskov and Ake Lernmark, where his interests turned to the targets of the autoimmune response that cause the destruction of the insulin-secreting beta cell in Type 1 diabetes. Moving to Toronto, then King’s College London, he showed that autoimmunity was directed to multiple islet proteins, identified one of these as the secretory granule protein, IA-2, and, together with the groups of Gian Franco Bottazzo, Edwin Gale and Anette Ziegler, demonstrated that a combination of antibodies to the multiple targets of autoimmunity provides the best predictor of future Type 1 diabetes development. He joined the University of Lincoln as Reader in Biomedical Sciences in July 2015, where he is investigating the role that B-cells play in promoting pathogenic T-cell responses in the disease, with a goal of developing procedures to modify the activity of islet antigen-specific B-cells as a preventative therapy for Type 1 diabetes.
