Vitamin D plays an immunoregulatory activity. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between blood serum 25(OH)D levels and Th17 and Treg circulating subsets, mainly Treg/ICOS + which seems to have a protective role in autoimmunity, in children with T1D and their healthy siblings (S).

The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between blood serum 25(OH)D levels and Th17 and Treg circulating subsets, mainly Treg/ICOS + which seems to have a protective role in autoimmunity, in children with T1D and their healthy siblings (S). The secondary aim was to evaluate the impact of vitamin D supplementation on these subsets.File in questo prodotto:
