CD68 and type 1 diabetes mellitus: Since the phagocytic capacity of DCs from patients with T1D was altered, the gene expression of specific PS receptors (CD36, CD68, MERTK, MFGE8), and immunoregulatory molecules (PPARG, TNFAIP3, TNFSF14, LAIR1, PDL1, PDL2, TFGB1, and VEGFA) was evaluated in DCs before (iDCs) and 4 h after (tolDCs) coculture with PSAB-liposomes in the three groups: control subjects, patients at onset and patients with established disease (Figure 3).
