IL-33 improves the suppressive potential of regulatory T cells in patients with type 1 diabetes.

AIMS: The presented study was aimed to analyze the influence of IL-33 on regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppressive potential in patients with type 1 diabetes.

METHODS: We analyzed the ability of IL-33 treated Tregs to inhibit the production of IFN-γ by effector T lymphocytes in an in vitro co-culture. The study group consisted of 22 patients with type 1 diabetes and 12 age and sex-matched healthy individuals.

RESULTS: Our findings revealed that in vitro IL-33 treatment of Tregs derived from patients with type 1 diabetes resulted in quantitative as well as qualitative changes in this cell population, confirming immunoregulatory features of IL-33.

CONCLUSION: IL-33 could be considered as a potential therapeutic tool in adoptive therapies of type 1 diabetes.
