The discovery that the pharmacological activation of LRH‐1/NR5A2 can reverse hyperglycaemia in mouse models of T1D by attenuating the autoimmune attack coupled to beta cell survival/regeneration prompted us to investigate whether immune tolerisation could be translated to individuals with T1D by LRH‐1/NR5A2 activation and improve islet survival. This evidence concerns the gene NR5A2 and Hyperglycemia.
