主 题:prevention striking linking
摘 要:Type 1 diabetes(T1D),also referred to as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus,is a debilitating disease that follows the destruction of pancreatic insulin-producingβcells by autologous T-cells.T1D primarily affects children and has a strong genetic component,with50 susceptibility loci identified,including HLA-DQβchains.1 However,the striking differences between European regions with similar genetic backgrounds and a sharp rise in T1D incidence in developed countries over the last several decades suggest that environmental factor(s)also play a relevant etiopathogenic role.2 Given the accumulating evidence linking the gut microbiota to protection against metabolic diseases,3 Mariño et al.4 recently tested the hypothesis that short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs),which are the end products of fermentation of dietary fibers by anaerobic intestinal microbiota,can protect genetically susceptible mice from developing ***,the authors found that diets enriched in acetate or butyrate(two of the main SCFAs)can protect animals from developing diabetes through different and complementary cellular *** findings significantly enhance our understanding of the role of diet and gut microbiota in the development of autoimmune diseases and indicate that the use of medicinal foods may be a cost-effective treatment against T1D and other autoimmune diseases with a cellular *** that current anti-T1D approaches(which focus on prevention or modulation of the adaptive specific immune response against autoantigens)have been generally disappointing,5 such a new and refreshing strategy has attracted a great deal of attention(reviewed in Ref.2).
