    Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease with an unexplained rising incidence for which environmental factors like gluten may play a role. Previously, we showed that a gluten-free (GF) diet provided strictly in utero reduces the autoimmune diabetes incidence in Non-Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice compared to a gluten-containing standard (STD) diet. The current study was initiated to elucidate possible mechanisms behind the diabetes-alleviating effect of the same diet intervention. NOD mice received either a GF Altromin diet or a STD Altromin diet during pregnancy. Female offspring from both groups were fed a STD diet throughout life and their diabetes incidence was recorded for 200 days. The following parameters were measured in 13-week-old female offspring: insulitis degree, glucose and insulin tolerance, and plasma insulin autoantibody titer. The diet intervention showed no reduction in autoimmune diabetes incidence, insulitis degree, glucose nor insulin tolerance and plasma insulin autoantibody titer. In conclusion, this study could not replicate the previously observed diabetes alleviative effects of a maternal gluten-free diet in NOD mouse offspring and could therefore not further elucidate potential mechanisms.

    Abstract Accumulating data suggest a role for the lysosomal protease cathepsin S (CTSS) in type 1 diabetes. Circulating CTSS is increased in type 1 diabetes; however, whether CTSS has protective or deleterious effects is unclear. The study's objectives were to examine the biomarker potential of CTSS in new-onset type 1 diabetes, and to investigate the expression and secretion of CTSS in human islets and β cells. The CTSS level was analyzed in serum from children with new-onset type 1 diabetes and autoantibody-positive and -negative siblings by ELISA. The expression and secretion of CTSS were evaluated in isolated human islets and EndoC-βH5 cells by real-time qPCR, immunoblotting, and ELISA. The CTSS serum level was elevated in children with new-onset type 1 diabetes and positively associated with autoantibody status in healthy siblings. Human islets and EndoC-βH5 cells demonstrated induction and secretion of CTSS after exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines, a model system of islet inflammation. Analysis of publicly available single-cell RNA sequencing data on human islets showed that elevated CTSS expression was exclusive for the β cells in donors with type 1 diabetes as compared to non-diabetic donors. These findings suggest a potential of CTSS as a diagnostic biomarker in type 1 diabetes.

    Abstract Aims: To investigate if HLA risk haplotypes and HbA1c levels are associated with the expression levels of innate anti-viral immune pathway genes in type 1 diabetes.
    Materials and methods: We investigated RNA expression levels of innate anti-viral immune pathway genes in laser-dissected islets from two to five tissue sections per donor from the Diabetes Virus Detection study and the network of Pancreatic Organ Donors in relation to HLA risk haplotypes (non-predisposed and predisposed) and HbA1c levels (normal, elevated, and high).
    Results: The expression of innate anti-viral immune genes (TLR7, OAS1, OAS3 etc.) was significantly increased in individuals with predisposing vs non-predisposing HLA haplotypes. Also, the expression of several of the innate anti-viral immune genes from the HLA risk haplotype analysis was significantly increased in the group with high vs normal HbA1c. Furthermore, the gene expression of OAS2 was significantly increased in the group with high HbA1c vs elevated HbA1c.
    Conclusions: Expression of innate anti-viral immune pathway genes was increased in individuals with predisposing HLA risk haplotypes and those with high HbA1c. This indicates that type 1 diabetes might well begin with alterations in innate anti-viral immunity, and already at this stage be associated with HLA risk haplotypes.

    Abstract Introduction: The prevalence of obesity and associated comorbidities have increased to epidemic proportions globally. Paternal obesity is an independent risk factor for developing obesity and type 2 diabetes in the following generation, and growing evidence suggests epigenetic inheritance as a mechanism for this predisposition. How and why obesity induces epigenetic changes in sperm cells remain to be clarified in detail. Yet, recent studies show that alterations in sperm content of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) can transmit the effects of paternal obesity to offspring. Obesity is closely associated with low-grade chronic inflammation. Thus, we evaluated whether the anti-inflammatory agent 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) could intervene in the transmission of epigenetic inheritance of paternal obesity by reducing the inflammatory state in obese fathers.
    Methods: Male C57BL/6JBomTac mice were either fed a high-fat diet or a high-fat diet with 5-ASA for ten weeks before mating. The offspring metabolic phenotype was evaluated, and spermatozoa from sires were isolated for assessment of specific tsRNAs levels.
    Results: 5-ASA intervention reduced the levels of Glu-CTC tsRNAs in sperm cells and improved glucose tolerance in female offspring fed a chow diet. Paternal high-fat diet-induced obesity per se had only a moderate impact on the metabolic phenotype of both male and female offspring in our setting.
    Conclusion: The results indicate that the low-grade inflammatory response associated with obesity may be an important factor in epigenetic inheritance of paternal obesity.

    Abstract Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are a family of transcription factors with a key role in glucose and lipid metabolism. PPARs are expressed in many cell types including pancreatic beta cells and immune cells, where they regulate insulin secretion and T cell differentiation, respectively. Moreover, various PPAR agonists prevent diabetes in the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of type 1 diabetes. PPARs are thus of interest in type 1 diabetes (T1D) as they represent a novel approach targeting both the pancreas and the immune system. In this review, we examine the role of PPARs in immune responses and beta cell biology and their potential as targets for treatment of T1D.
