Abstract
The immunopathogenesis of HIV infection remains poorly understood. Despite the widespread use of effective modern antiretroviral therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) are known to develop several comorbidities, including type 1 diabetes (T1DM). However, the etiology and critical mechanisms accounting for the onset of T1DM in the preceding context remain unknown. This article proposes to address this topic in order to provide further understanding and future research directions.

Abstract
Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a type of diabetes caused by slow progression of autoimmune damage to pancreatic beta cells. According to the etiological classification, LADA should belong to the autoimmune subtype of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Previous studies have found general immune genetic effects associated with LADA, but there are also some racial differences. Multicenter studies have been conducted in different countries worldwide, but it is still unclear how the Chinese and Caucasian populations differ. The epidemiology and phenotypic characteristics of LADA may vary between Caucasian and Chinese diabetic patients as lifestyle, food habits, and body mass index differ between these two populations. The prevalence of LADA in China has reached a high level compared to other countries. The prevalence of LADA in China has reached a high level compared to other countries, and the number of patients with LADA ranks first in the world. Previous studies have found general immune genetic effects associated with LADA, but some racial differences also exist. The prevalence of LADA among newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients over the age of 30 years in China is 5.9%, and LADA patients account for 65% of the newly diagnosed T1D patients in the country. As a country with a large population, China has many people with LADA. A summary and analysis of these studies will enhance further understanding of LADA in China. In addition, comparing the similarities and differences between the Chinese and the Caucasian population from the perspectives of epidemiology, clinical, immunology and genetics will help to improve the understanding of LADA, and then promote LADA studies in individual populations.

Abstract
Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a type of diabetes characterized by slow autoimmune damage of pancreatic β cells without insulin treatment in the early clinical stage. There are differences between LADA and classical type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in genetic background, autoimmune response, rate of islet function decline, clinical metabolic characteristics, and so on. The disease progression and drug response of patients with LADA are closely related to the level of islet autoimmunity, thus exploring the pathogenesis of LADA is of great significance for its prevention and treatment. Previous studies reported that adaptive immunity and innate immunity play a critical role in the etiology of LADA. Recent studies have shown that the intestinal microbiota which impacts host immunity hugely, participates in the pathogenesis of LADA. In addition, the progression of autoimmune pancreatic β cell destruction in LADA is slower than in classical T1D, providing a wider window of opportunities for intervention. Therefore, therapies including antidiabetic drugs with immune-regulation effects and immunomodulators could contribute to promising interventions for LADA. We also shed light on potential interventions targeting the gut microbiota and gut-associated immunity, which may be envisaged to halt or delay the process of autoimmunity in LADA.

Abstract
Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is an autoimmune disease that shares some genetic, immunological and clinical features with both type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Immune cells including CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, B cells, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) have been detected in the pancreas of patients with LADA and a rat model of LADA. Therefore, similar to type 1 diabetes, the pathogenesis of LADA may be caused by interactions between islet β-cells and innate and adaptive immune cells. However, the role of the immunity in the initiation and progression of LADA remains largely unknown. In this review, we have summarized the potential roles of innate immunity and immune-modulators in LADA development. Furthermore, we have examined the evidence and discussed potential innate immunological reasons for the slower development of LADA compared with type 1 diabetes. More in-depth mechanistic studies are needed to fully elucidate the roles of innate immune-associated genes, molecules and cells in their contributions to LADA pathogenesis. Undertaking these studies will greatly enhance the development of new strategies and optimization of current strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Abstract
In this paper, a model is proposed of the pathophysiological processes of COVID-19 starting from the infection of human type II alveolar epithelial cells (pneumocytes) by SARS-CoV-2 and culminating in the development of ARDS. The innate immune response to infection of type II alveolar epithelial cells leads both to their death by apoptosis and pyroptosis and to alveolar macrophage activation. Activated macrophages secrete proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines and tend to polarise into the inflammatory M1 phenotype. These changes are associated with activation of vascular endothelial cells and thence the recruitment of highly toxic neutrophils and inflammatory activated platelets into the alveolar space. Activated vascular endothelial cells become a source of proinflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and contribute to the development of coagulopathy, systemic sepsis, a cytokine storm and ARDS. Pulmonary activated platelets are also an important source of proinflammatory cytokines and ROS, as well as exacerbating pulmonary neutrophil-mediated inflammatory responses and contributing to systemic sepsis by binding to neutrophils to form platelet-neutrophil complexes (PNCs). PNC formation increases neutrophil recruitment, activation priming and extraversion of these immune cells into inflamed pulmonary tissue, thereby contributing to ARDS. Sequestered PNCs cause the development of a procoagulant and proinflammatory environment. The contribution to ARDS of increased extracellular histone levels, circulating mitochondrial DNA, the chromatin protein HMGB1, decreased neutrophil apoptosis, impaired macrophage efferocytosis, the cytokine storm, the toll-like receptor radical cycle, pyroptosis, necroinflammation, lymphopenia and a high Th17 to regulatory T lymphocyte ratio are detailed.

Abstract
Background: Dysfunction of the peripheral blood monocytes in the form of changes in their proportion, cytokines or pattern-recognition receptors (PRR) expressions may be involved in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Our aim is to analyze the three monocyte subsets; classical, non-classical and intermediate monocytes and their expression of Toll-like receptors 2 (TLR-2) and 4 (TLR-4) in T1DM patients. Methods: The peripheral blood monocytes of 20 T1DM patients were analyzed by Flow cytometry to measure their count and TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression. Results: T1DM patients had more non-classical and intermediate monocytes, whereas classical monocytes were comparable between patients and control (20 healthy volunteers). Classical, non-classical and intermediate monocytes had no significant correlations with hemoglobin (Hb) A1C in controls, while all subsets showed positive correlations with HbA1C in T1DM. TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression were significantly increased in classical monocytes in patients, especially those with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), and both of them showed positive correlations with the duration of T1DM. The expression of TLR-2 inside non-classical monocytes showed a negative correlation with LDL cholesterol and TLR-4/TLR-2 ratio showed positive correlations with the duration of T1DM and negative correlations with total cholesterol. The expression of TLR-2 inside intermediate monocytes showed positive correlations with the duration of T1DM and TLR-4/TLR-2 ratio showed negative correlations with the duration of T1DM Conclusions: The observed changes in both proportions and TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression of monocyte subsets can raise the possible role in the pathogenesis of early stages of T1DM and DKA.

Abstract
Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is the most common form of autoimmune diabetes diagnosed in adults. Similar to type 1 diabetes, the prevalence of LADA is impacted by ethnicity and geography. LADA is characterized by β cell loss due to autoimmunity and insulin resistance and has highly heterogeneous clinical features, autoimmunity, and genetics in a glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA) titre-dependent manner, suggesting LADA is part of a continuum spectrum between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Although LADA is the most frequent form of autoimmune diabetes diagnosed in adults, clinical trials involving LADA are scarce. Here we review the recent advancements in LADA epidemiology, clinical features, pathogenesis, and interventions. We also highlight the environmental factors that are thought to play an important role in addition to genetics in the pathogenesis of LADA. In the future, high-throughput molecular profiles might shed light on the nature of LADA among the wide spectrum of diabetes and offer new opportunities to identify novel LADA-specific biomarkers.

Abstract
Background This study was to investigate the effect and its possible mechanism of fucoidan on the development of spontaneous autoimmune diabetes in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. Methods 7-week-old NOD mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group, low-dose (300 mg/kg) and high-dose (600 mg/kg) fucoidan-treatment groups. After 5 weeks of treatment, 10 mice per group were randomly selected to be sacrificed after feces collection. The remaining 12 mice per group were fed until 26 weeks of age to assess the incidence of diabetes. Results Treatment with fucoidan increased serum insulin level, delayed the onset and decreased the development of diabetes in NOD mice. Fucoidan reduced the levels of strong Th1 proinflammatory cytokines, but induced Th2-bias ed. cytokine response. And dentridic cells (DCs) in fucoidan treatment group were characterized as low expression of MHC class II and CD86 molecules. TLR4 expressions and the downstream molecules in pancreas were down-regulated in fucoidan-treated groups. There were significant differences in the composition of gut flora between NOD control group and fucoidan group. Lactobacillus and Akkermansia were significantly enriched in fucoidan group. Conclusions Fucoidan could prevent the development of autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice via regulating DC/Treg induced immune tolerance, improving gut microecology, down-regulating TLR4 signaling pathway, and maintaining pancreatic internal environment.

Abstract
Background: Although peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) have been demonstrated to be in a pro-inflammatory state in obesity and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), characterization of circulating PBMC phenotypes in the obese and T2DM and the effect of Metformin on these phenotypes in humans is still ill-defined and remains to be determined. Methods: Thirty normal healthy adult volunteers of normal weight, 30 obese subjects, 20 obese newly diagnosed diabetics and 30 obese diabetics on Metformin were recruited for the study. Fasting blood samples were collected and PBMC were isolated from whole blood. Polarization markers (CD86, IL-6, TNFα, iNOS, CD36, CD11c, CD169, CD206, CD163, CD68, CD11b, CD16, and CD14) were measured by RT-qPCR. Gene expression fold changes were calculated using the 2-ΔΔCT method for RT-qPCR. Results: Obesity and T2DM are associated an increased CD68 marker in PBMC. mRNA expression of CD11b, CD11c, CD169, and CD163 were significantly reduced in PBMC from T2DM subjects whereas CD11c was significantly inhibited in PBMC from obese subjects. On the other hand, macrophage M1-like phenotype was observed in T2DM circulation as demonstrated by increased mRNA expression of CD16, IL-6, iNOS, TNFα, and CD36. There were no significant changes in CD14 and CD86 in the obese and T2DM when compared to the lean subjects. Metformin treatment in T2DM reverted CD11c, CD169, IL-6, iNOS, TNFα, and CD36 to levels comparable to lean subjects. CD206 mRNA expression was significantly upregulated in PBMC of T2DM while Metformin treatment inhibited CD206 expression levels. Conclusions: These data support the notion that PBMC in circulation in T2DM express different pattern of phenotypic markers than the patterns typically present in M1 and M2 like cells. These phenotypic markers could be representative of metabolically activated macrophages (MMe)-like cells. Metformin, on the other hand, reduces MMe-like cells in circulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited information on prevalence of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in patients with type-1-diabetes. We assessed the prevalence of PTB in patients with type-1-diabetes attending the outpatient-clinic in a tertiary-care hospital. METHODS 151 patients with type-1-diabetes were screened for PTB by clinical examination and chest-radiography. Sputum Acid-Fast Bacilli Test (AFB) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) culture were performed in patients with clinical and radiological features suggestive of a possibility of PTB and also in those with history of PTB in the past. Their average glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) during preceding 2 years was assessed. Sputum culture positive patients were managed by a pulmonologist. RESULTS 5/151 patients had respiratory symptoms and radiographic findings suggestive of PTB. 20/151 patients were asymptomatic but had history of PTB. Four of the five symptomatic patients and 12 with past PTB were positive for sputum M.tb by culture, giving a prevalence of 10.6 % sputum culture positive in type-1-diabetes. Average HbA1c was comparable in patients with and without positive sputum culture. ESR and Mantoux test were not discriminatory in these groups. Four clinically symptomatic M.tb culture positive and four asymptomatic patients with sputum culture positive for M.tb on two occasions (6 weeks apart) were put on antitubercular treatment (ATT). Patients who were culture positive for M.tb only on one occasion were kept on a close follow up. CONCLUSIONS Patients with type-1-diabetes mellitus in India have high prevalence of PTB. They need to be actively screened for PTB by sputum M.tb culture in order to initiate early treatment and to prevent transmission in the community.
