Etio-pathogenesis of Type 2 Diabetes Inflammation b-cell dysfunction/apoptosis
Islet inflammation and IL-1 in Type 2 diabetes • IL-1 causes functional inhibition and apoptosis of b-cells1 • Macrophage infiltration in islets of Type 2 diabetic animals and patients2 • Glucose-induced human b-cell apoptosis prevented by IL-1Ra3 • b-cells express IL-1 mRNA in Type 2 diabetic patients4 1 Mandrup-Poulsen T et al Diabetologia 1986; 29: 63‑67 2 Ehses J et al Diabetes 2007; 56: 2356-70 3 Maedler K et al J Clin Invest 2002,110;851-60 4 Boni-Schnetzler M et al ADA 2007 Diabetes 2007 (suppl. 1)
Conclusions • This study provides proof-of-principle that IL-1 is an important mediator of impaired glycemia in Type 2 diabetes by affecting b-cell function • The results suggest that long-term inhibition of IL-1 action may preserve b-cell function in Type 2 diabetic patients
