Autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes (T1D) involve the loss of regulatory mechanisms resulting in increased tissue-specific cytotoxicity. The result is destruction of pancreatic insulin-producing β-cells and loss of glucose homeostasis. We are developing a novel oral vaccine using live attenuated to deliver TGFβ, IL10, and the diabetic autoantigen preproinsulin combined with low-doses of anti-CD3 mAb. Here we show that oral administration of -based anti-CD3 mAb combined therapy reverses new-onset T1D in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. The therapeutic effect of the combined therapy was associated with induction of immune suppressive CD4CD25Foxp3 Treg and CD4CD49bLAG3 Tr1 cells. In adoptive transfer ... More
