Article Synopsis
- The review highlights type 1 diabetes (T1D) as a systemic autoimmune and inflammatory disease, emphasizing the role of the innate immune system in its development.
- The dysfunction of innate immunity leads to the destruction of pancreatic beta cells by T-lymphocytes, resulting in insulin deficiency and subsequent hyperglycemia, which poses risks to various organs and tissues.
- The review discusses the potential of antioxidants, especially the enzyme peroxiredoxin 6, to mitigate oxidative stress and promote insulin production, thereby potentially reducing the harmful effects associated with T1D.
