Objective: The potential immunoregulatory capacity of sitagliptin on interleukin-29 (IL-29) and genes involved in its intracellular pathway were explored in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).
Materials And Methods: T2D patients treated with six months of sitagliptin (Sita), patients not treated with sitagliptin (Sita), and healthy controls (HCs) were included. IL-29 levels in the supernatant of stimulated mononuclear immune cells was determined with ELISA.

Introduction: The molecular basis of the progression of some COVID-19 patients to worse outcomes is not entirely known. Interferons-lambda-1/interleukin-29 (IFN-λ1/IL-29) is a member of the type III IFNs with a strong antiviral activity. Given the scant data on the potential role of IFN-λ1/IL-29 in COVID-19, we investigated the association of IFN-λ1/IL-29 serum level and the IFNL1 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs30461) with severe course of COVID-19.

Current research focuses on the soluble and high-level expression of biologically active recombinant human IL-29 protein in Escherichia coli. The codon-optimized IL-29 gene was cloned into the Champion™ pET SUMO expression system downstream of the SUMO tag under the influence of the T7 lac promoter. The expression of SUMO-fused IL-29 protein was compared in E.

Objective: The production of interleukin (IL)-29 andthe genes related to IL-29 signaling pathway (STAT1, NF-κB, and NFATc1), and T helper (Th) 1 cells (T-bet, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2) were evaluated in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Correlations between IL-29 and diabetes parameters, and between gene expression in IL-29 pathway and Th1 cells were also examined.
Materials And Methods: 41 newly diagnosed patients with T2DM and 41 healthy controls were recruited.
