Etio-pathogenesis of Type 2 Diabetes
-cell dysfunction/apoptosis
Inflammation
Islet inflammation and IL-1 in Type 2 diabetes
• IL-1 causes functional inhibition and apoptosis of -cells1
• Macrophage infiltration in islets of Type 2 diabetic animals and patients2
• Glucose-induced human -cell apoptosis prevented by IL-1Ra3
• -cells express IL-1 mRNA in Type 2 diabetic patients4

Conclusions • This study provides proof-of-principle that IL-
1 is an important mediator of impaired glycemia in Type 2 diabetes by affecting -cell function
• The results suggest that long-term inhibition of IL-1 action may preserve -cell function in Type 2 diabetic patients
