Abstract
Autoreactive lymphocytes that infiltrate the pancreatic islet environment and target β cells are primary drivers of type 1 diabetes. In this issue of Immunity, Srivastava et al.1 examine the role of the islet microenvironment in autoimmunity and find that the scavenging receptor CXCL16 on islet-resident macrophages uptakes oxidized low-density lipoproteins and promotes the differentiation and survival of infiltrating pathogenic CD8+ T cells.
期刊介绍:
Immunity is a publication that focuses on publishing significant advancements in research related to immunology. We encourage the submission of studies that offer groundbreaking immunological discoveries, whether at the molecular, cellular, or whole organism level. Topics of interest encompass a wide range, such as cancer, infectious diseases, neuroimmunology, autoimmune diseases, allergies, mucosal immunity, metabolic diseases, and homeostasis.
