| Popis: | Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a pancreatic beta cell specific autoimmune disease. One of the most significant current discussions in T1D studies is therapy. Since the conventional therapy, islet transplantation and external insulin, e.g., cannot prevent the destructive autoimmune process against original beta cells and persistent hyperglycemia remains, so recent developments in the field of T1D therapy paved the way to a renewed interest in immunotherapy based on the disease process, especially monoclonal antibody therapy. Due to encouraging laboratory results, cytokine antibody-based drugs could be effective in the clinical direction of the T1D disease process. Hence, implementation of this approach can be useful to improve clinical and laboratory manifestations of T1D. |
