Recent study was reported that a selected group of autophagy-related genes, such as CCL2, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (CDKN1A), FOS, myelocytomatosis (MYC), and TNF superfamily member 10 (TNFSF10)—whose functions are related to IFN-I signaling pathways—significantly influenced the infiltration of multiple immune cells, including B-cells, macrophages, and NK cells, in samples from DM patients compared to controls, suggesting that these genes may be potential diagnostic biomarkers for DM (158). Here, CDKN1A is linked to diabetes mellitus.
