Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β-cells. Although Th1 cells are key orchestrators of T1D, the function(s) of the more recently identified Th17 subset are unclear due to inherent plasticity.

Kids' Diabetes Rates Up Dramatically in 8 Years, Study Finds
U.S. News & World Report
SATURDAY, May 3, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Rates of diabetes in U.S. children have jumped sharply in just eight years, according to new research.

Via Remi Creusot
Remi Creusot's curator insight, May 6, 2014 9:27 AM

This study confirms the already suspected rate of increased T1D and T2D incidence in children. This follows the even more dramatic trend of about 3% increase per year in Europe. More and more studies are now turning to how or lifestyle influences this.

In Vivo Detection of Peripherin-Specific Autoreactive B Cells during Type 1 Diabetes Pathogenesis [AUTOIMMUNITY]

In Vivo Detection of Peripherin-Specific Autoreactive B Cells during Type 1 Diabetes Pathogenesis [AUTOIMMUNITY] | AUTOIMMUNITY | Scoop.it
Autoreactive B cells are essential for the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes. The genesis and dynamics of autoreactive B cells remain unknown.
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

..... analyzed the immune response in the NOD mouse model to the neuronal protein peripherin (PRPH) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripherin,

a target Ag of islet-infiltrating B cells. PRPH autoreactive B cells recognized a single linear epitope of this protein, in contrast to the multiple epitope recognition commonly observed during autoreactive B cell responses. Autoantibodies to this epitope were also detected in the disease-resistant NOR and C57BL/6 strains.
