Calorie Restriction Upregulates Islet PD-L1 Signaling and Decreases the Risk of Auto-immune Diabetes Onset in NOD Mice
2026-02-17
Abstract excerpt
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease where beta cells are destroyed by cytotoxic T cells. Calorie restriction (CR) enhances glucose homeostasis and promotes beta cell longevity and was used as therapeutic strategy for T1D prior to the discovery of insulin. However, a significant knowledge gap remains regarding its effects on beta cells during the pathogenesis of autoimmunity. We demonstrate that CR enhan...
