The association between the gut microbiome/virome, T-cell exhaustion and immuno-tolerance in T1D constitutes an important knowledge gap and may serve as a therapeutic target in T1D, that will be adressed in this cohort study.

Primaire uitkomstmaten
associations between residual beta cell function (2-hour post-meal urinary C-peptide / creatinine ratio), gut microbiome composition and circulating T-cell immune cell function
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
It has become apparent that most individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) have some remaining beta cell function. Individuals with T1D and a preserved beta cell mass have a lower risk of hypoglycaemia and diabetic complications. The factors regulating residual beta cell function are unknown. A likely mechanism leading to a large beta cell reserve is regulation of immunological tone by the gut microbiome. Therefore, we will investigate whether residual beta cell mass is associated with gut micro-biome composition and circulating immune cell counts in individuals with T1D.
Doel van het onderzoek
The association between the gut microbiome/virome, T-cell exhaustion and immuno-tolerance in T1D constitutes an important knowledge gap and may serve as a therapeutic target in T1D, that will be adressed in this cohort study.
