As the application of exogenous interleukin 33 (IL-33) given from the beginning of MLD–STZ diabetes induction attenuates the development of disease, by increasing the presence of regulatory FoxP3+ ST2+ cells, we evaluated the potential synergistic effect of the exogenous IL-33 and TG overexpression of Gal-3 in β cells at the later stage of diabetogenesis. This evidence concerns the gene IL33 and diabetes mellitus.
