title: Immunotherapy of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
abstract: Immunotherapy of diabetes is now focusing on induction of tolerance to beta cell antigens using either soluble antigens or monoclonal anti-T-cell antibodies. These approaches have reached the clinical arena. At the experimental level, strategies are being developed that use or target cytokines (with gene therapy) or stimulate regulatory T cells.
