Abstract
Diabetes is a common metabolic disease characterized by an imbalance in blood glucose levels. The pathogenesis of diabetes involves the essential role of cytokines, particularly the IL-12 family cytokines. These cytokines, which have a similar structure, play multiple roles in regulating the immune response. Recent studies have emphasized the importance of IL-12 family cytokines in the development of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. As a result, they hold promise as potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of these conditions. This review focuses on the potential of targeting IL-12 family cytokines for diabetes therapy based on their roles in the pathogenesis of both types of diabetes. We have summarized various therapies that target IL-12 family cytokines, including drug therapy, combination therapy, cell therapy, gene therapy, cytokine engineering therapy, and gut microbiota modulation. By analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of these therapies, we have evaluated their feasibility for clinical application and proposed possible solutions to overcome any challenges. In conclusion, targeting IL-12 family cytokines for diabetes therapy provides updated insights into their potential benefits, such as controlling inflammation, preserving islet β cells, reversing the onset of diabetes, and impeding the development of diabetic complications.

Abstract
Amaç: Diyabetik nöropatinin patogenezinde proinflamatuar ve nörovasküler değişiklikler suçlanmaktadır. Diyabetin vasküler inflamasyonu tetiklediği kabul edilse de inflamasyonun da diyabeti tetikleyebileceği öne sürülmüştür. İnterlökin-23 (IL-23) aktive makrofajlar ve dendritik hücreler tarafından salgılanan proinflamatuar bir sitokindir. Interleukin-23R'nin kronik inflamatuar hastalıklarda kritik bir rolü olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, IL-23R polimorfizmi ile diyabetik periferik nöropati arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir.
Yöntem: Nöroloji polikliniğine başvuran 50 diyabetik periferik nöropati hastası ve hasta grubuna yaş ve cinsiyet açısından uyumlu 52 sağlıklı kontrol çalışmaya dahil edildi. Çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden gönüllülerin tamamına elektromiyografi uygulandı ve EDTA'lı tüplere 2 ml kan örneği alındı. Pyrosequencing yöntemi ile IL-23R gen polimorfizmi analiz edildi.
Bulgular: IL-23R gen varyantları rs2201841, rs199542433, rs201052419, rs11209026 diyabetik periferik nöropati (DPN) hastalarında ve kontrol grubunda analiz edildi. IL23R polimorfizmleri sıklıkları açısından hasta ve kontrol grupları arasında anlamlı bir fark saptanmadı. Ancak, odd’s oranlarına bakıldığında, rs2201841'in koruyucu rolü var gibi görünmekte, rs199542433 hem baskın hem de çekinik modellerde ve rs11209026 sadece çekinik modelde, DPN için 10 kata kadar daha yüksek risklerle ilişkili olabileceği görünmektedir.
Sonuç: IL-23R gen polimorfizminin birçok otoimmün ve inflamatuar hastalık ile ilişkili olduğu gösterilmiştir. İnflamasyonun diyabet üzerinde önemli bir etkisi olduğu bilinmektedir. Diyabetik periferik nöropatide IL-23R gen polimorfizminin sıklığı anlamlı değildi. Çalışmamız diyabetik periferik nöropatide IL-23R gen polimorfizminin rolünü araştıran tek ve ilk çalışmadır. Etnik köken, genetik çalışmalarda çok önemlidir ve bu çalışmanın başka etnik kökene sahip hastalarda yapılması ve daha geniş çalışma gruplarının alınması, bize ilerisi için daha net bilgiler verecektir.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is caused by a combination of environmental and multiple genetic factors, with clear evidence for a strong genetic basis. The remarkable accumulation of knowledge gained from genetic, pharmacogenetic, and therapeutic response of biologic agents in PsA has fundamentally changed and advanced our understanding of disease pathogenesis and has identified key signalling pathways. However, only one-quarter of the genetic contribution of PsA has been accounted for; and dissecting the genetic contributors of the cutaneous disease from those that would identify joint disease has been challenging. More importantly, the clinical utility of multiple proposed loci is unclear. In this review, we summarize the potential clinical relevance from established genetic associations and provide insight on the proposed molecular pathways that arise from these associations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic skin and joint condition that considerably affects patient quality of life. Several studies have demonstrated different associations of genetic polymorphisms in the pathogenic process of PsA. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to estimate the effect of polymorphisms in the cytokines TNF, IL12B, IL23A, and IL23R on PsA risk. METHODS We screened 1,097 abstracts and identified 14 relevant studies published between January 2007 and December 2017. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases. Meta-analyses were performed for the comparisons of alleles and multiple genetic models. RESULTS Among the cytokines studied, we found 17 polymorphisms that were the most investigated. The association to PsA was observed in the presence of polymorphisms: TNF-238 G > A (rs361525), -308 G > A (rs1800629), and -857 C > T (rs1799724); IL12B C > G (rs6887695) and A > C (rs3212227); IL23A A > G (rs2066808) and IL23R G > A (rs11209026). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that these variant cytokine genes may strongly influence the immunological response of PsA.

Distinct gene expression pathways in islets from individuals with short- and long-duration type 1 diabetes. Diabetes Obes Metab 2018; 20:1859-1867.

Abstract
AIMS Our current understanding of the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) arose, in large part, from studies using the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model. In the present study, we chose a human-focused method to investigate T1D disease mechanisms and potential targets for therapeutic intervention by directly analysing human donor pancreatic islets from individuals with T1D. MATERIALS AND METHODS We obtained islets from a young individual with T1D for 3 years and from an older individual with T1D for 27 years and performed unbiased functional genomic analysis by high-depth RNA sequencing; the T1D islets were compared with islets isolated from 3 non-diabetic donors. RESULTS The islets procured from these T1D donors represent a unique opportunity to identify gene expression changes in islets after significantly different disease duration. Data analysis identified several inflammatory pathways up-regulated in short-duration disease, which notably included many components of innate immunity. As proof of concept for translation, one of the pathways, governed by IL-23(p19), was selected for further study in NOD mice because of ongoing human trials of biologics against this target for different indications. A mouse monoclonal antibody directed against IL-23(p19) when administered to NOD mice resulted in a significant reduction in incidence of diabetes. CONCLUSION While the sample size for this study is small, our data demonstrate that the direct analysis of human islets provides a greater understanding of human disease. These data, together with the analysis of an expanded cohort to be obtained by future collaborative efforts, might result in the identification of promising novel targets for translation into effective therapeutic interventions for human T1D, with the added benefit of repurposing known biologicals for use in different indications.

Abstract
AIMS Evaluate the participation of IL-17 pathway in T1D pathogenesis. T helper 17 cells are potent, highly inflammatory cells that produce interleukin 17A (IL-17A), considered a mediator of various immune disorders. However, their role in Type 1 diabetes (T1D) pathogenesis in humans is not totally elucidated. METHODS The expression of IL-17 Receptor A (IL-17RA) in peripheral T lymphocytes and IL-17A serum levels in recent-onset patients with T1D were compared with healthy controls. IL-17A gene variants were evaluated in a greater cohort. RESULTS Patients with recent-onset T1D (less than 6 months of diagnosis) exhibited lower expression of IL-17RA in CD3+ T (% of cells = 31.3% × 43.6%; p = .041) and CD4+ T cells (11.1% × 25.2%; p = .0019) and lower number of IL-17RA in CD4+ T cells (MFI = 1.16 × 4.56; p = .03) than controls. IL-17RA expression in CD8+ T cells and IL-17A serum levels were similar in both groups. The coding regions and boundary intron sequences of IL17A were sequenced. Seventeen allelic variants, including three novel variants in exon 3 (3'UTR n) were identified, but no one was associated with T1D susceptibility, as well as the resulting haplotypes and diplotypes. The expression of IL-17RA was not correlated with metabolic variables (glucose and HbA1c levels) or pancreatic autoantibodies titers. CONCLUSIONS The lower expression of IL-17RA in CD3+ and CD4+ T cells suggests a reduced effect of IL-17A in immune response of recent-onset T1D patients, at least at peripheral tissues. IL-17A allelic variants were not related with T1D susceptibility.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of chronic inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract that includes two major phenotypes, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis that are characterized by different clinical features and different course of the immune response. The exact aetiology of IBD still remains unknown, although it is thought that the diseases result from an excessive immune response directed against microbial or environmentally derived antigens which can be triggered by the disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier integrity. In this review we present immune mechanisms and interactions between cells of the immune system and tissue environment that contribute to the development and progression of IBD in humans. Since dysregulation of the intestinal immune response is a hallmark of chronic inflammatory conditions, we characterize cells of the innate and adaptive immunity involved in the pathogenesis of IBD and their cross-talks. We describe various subclasses of recently discovered innate lymphoid cells, as well as dendritic cells, macrophages and T cells, including Th17, Th22 and T regulatory cells, present in the intestinal lamina propria and cytokine-mediated regulation of the immune response in IBD, highlighting the role of IL-22 and IL-17A/IL-23 axis. Insights into novel therapeutic modalities targeting certain elements of the immune pathways important for the pathogenesis of IBD have been also shortly presented.
