ENT1DEP ENTEROVIRUS-LINKED TYPE 1 DIABETES EXPOSED -MECHANISMS AND PREVENTION

Coordinator: TAMPEREEN KORKEAKOULUSAATIO SR (FI)

ENT1DEP aims to define causal links between infections and NCDs by focusing on enterovirus (EV) infections and type 1 diabetes (T1D), a robust association without proof of causality. Causality is addressed by a multidisciplinary, multi-layer approach, using in-vitro and in-vivo models, unique human samples, and artificial intelligence to identify mechanisms and related biomarkers, asking 3 key questions:1. Why are only insulin-producing β-cells destroyed by EVs? Weak β-cell antiviral responses and high expression of EV entry receptors may favour EV persistence. This hypothesis is addressed us…
