Brief summary: This study used high-resolution single-cell multiomics and flow cytometry on blood samples from patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to examine the effects of low-dose recombinant IL-2 (iLD-IL-2). Administration of iLD-IL-2 expanded thymic-derived FOXP3+HELIOS+ Tregs and CD56bright NK cells, reduced frequency of IL-21-producing CD4+T cells, and induced long-lived anti-inflammatory transcriptional changes in all T and NK...
