Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is one of the most common chronic autoimmune diseases, characterized by absolute insulin deficiency caused via inflammatory destruction of the pancreatic β-cell. Genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors play a role in the development of diseases. Almost ⅕ of cases involve people under the age of 20. In recent years, the incidence of both T1D and obesity has been increasing, especially among children, adolescents, and young people. In addition, according to the latest study, the prevalence of overweight or obesity in people with T1D has increased significantly. The risk factors of weight gain included using exogenous insulin, intensifying insulin therapy, fear of hypoglycemia and related decrease in physical activity, and psychological factors, such as emotional eating and binge eating. It has also been suggested that T1D may be a complication of obesity. The relationship between body size in childhood, increase in body mass index values in late adolescence and the development of T1D in young adulthood is considered. Moreover, the coexistence of T1D and T2D is increasingly observed, this situation is called double or hybrid diabetes. This is associated with an increased risk of the earlier development of dyslipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and consequently a shortening of life. Thus, the purpose of this review was to summarize the relationships between overweight or obesity and T1D.

Deacetylated nimbin analog N2 fortifies alloxan-induced pancreatic β-cell damage in insulin-resistant zebrafish larvae by upregulating phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and insulin levels.

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the protective behaviour of N2, a semi-natural analog of nimbin, for its anti-diabetic efficacy against alloxan-induced oxidative damage and β-cell dysfunction in in-vivo zebrafish larvae. A 500 μM of alloxan was exposed to zebrafish larvae for 24 h to induce oxidative stress in the pancreatic β-cells and co-exposed with N2 to study the protection of N2 by inhibiting ROS by DCFH-DA, DHE and NDA staining along with Cellular damage, apoptosis and lipid peroxidation. The zebrafish was further exposed to 500 μM alloxan for 72 h to induce β-cell destruction along with depleted glucose uptake and co-exposed to N2 to study the protective mechanism. Glucose levels were estimated, and PCR was used to verify the mRNA expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and insulin. Alloxan induced (24 h) oxidative stress in the pancreatic β-cells in which N2's co-exposure inhibited ROS by eliminating O-₂ radicals and restoring the glutathione levels, thus preventing cellular damage and lipid peroxidation. The zebrafish exposed to 500 μM alloxan for 72 h was observed with β-cell destruction along with depleted glucose uptake when stained with 2NBDG, wherein N2 was able to protect the pancreatic β-cells from oxidative damage, promoted high glucose uptake and reduced glucose levels. N2 stimulated insulin production and downregulated PEPCK by inhibiting gluconeogenesis, attenuating post-prandial hyperglycemia. N2 may contribute to anti-oxidant protection against alloxan-induced β-cell damage and anti-hyperglycemic activity, restoring insulin function and suppressing PEPCK expression.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY The study aimed to analyze an association between the HLA-A gene variation and a risk of type 1 diabetes development and to evaluate the association of HLA class I and class II alleles with β-cell destruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS A group of 108 children with type 1 diabetes were genotyped in HLA-A, -DRB1, and -DQB1 genes using hybridization with oligonu-cleotides probes. Plasma C-peptide concentration was assessed by radioimmunoassay method. RESULTS No differences in allele HLA-A distribution between type 1 diabetes patients and healthy individuals were found. Among "low C-peptide"(< 0.28 pmol/ml) individuals, the frequency of HLA-A*02 allele was 41.3%, whereas only one HLA-A*26 allele was detected in this group (0.7%). Conversely, among "high C-peptide"( 0.28 pmol/ml) probands the prevalence of A*02 allele was 19.7% (Pc = 0.008, OR = 1.4, 95% CI: 1.2-1.7) and A*26 10.5 % (Pc < 0.007, OR = 0.15, 95% CI: 0.02-0.9). Genotype analysis showed that A*02/*02 and A*02/X children were more likely to have "low" C-peptide at the onset compared to those with non-A*02/non-A*02 genotype (p = 0.008, OR = 1.6, 95% CI: 1.3-2.0 and p = 0.015, OR = 1.4, 95% CI: 1.1-1.9, respectively). A02 phenotype individuals had lower median C-peptide (0.17 pmol/ml) than non-A02 patients (0.26 pmol/ml, p = 0.008). Median C-peptide was higher in the A26-positive group comparing to A26-negative (0.40 and 0.20, respectively, p = 0.04). No association between HLA class II and C-peptide levels was observed. CONCLUSIONS HLA-A alleles are not associated with disease development nevertheless strongly influence a residual pancreatic β-cell function. The results suggest a different role of HLA class I and class II in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Daphnetin (7, 8-dihydroxycoumarin), a natural coumarin compound, is known to exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatrory effects. However, the underlying mechanisms of its anti-apoptotic and antidiabetic effects yet not been examined. Therefore, the present work studied the anti-apoptotic and anti-diabetic effects of daphnetin by in vitro experiments. METHODS The rat insulinoma (INS-1) cells were pre-treated with daphnetin at different concentrations (1, 10, 20 and 40µM) for 24h followed by exposition to streptozotocin (STZ) (3mM) for 12h. Effects of daphnetin and STZ on INS-1 cells were determined by MTT assay, glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) assay, lipid peroxidation, antioxidant status (SOD, CAT, GPx, and GST) Apoptosis staining (DAPI, Hoechst 33342, AO/EB and ROS) was performed by fluorescence microscopy, and Bcl-2, Bax and NF-κB protein expression was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS MTT assay indicated that the viability of INS-1 cells was significantly reduced with exposure to STZ for 12h as compared to control cells, while pre-treated with daphnetin for 24h resulted in a significant improvement of cell viability. The effects daphnetin treatment in INS-1 cells on insulin secretion was tested and results showed that the pre-treatment of daphnetin could improve GSIS. Further, daphnetin pre-treatment significantly reduced the levels of lipid peroxidation markers and also improved antioxidant enzymes' activities in STZ-induced INS-1 cells. Western blotting assay revealed that daphnetin could suppress apoptosis through up-regulation of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein expression and the down-regulation of pro-apoptotic Bax and nuclear factor NF-κB protein levels. CONCLUSION The results showed that daphnetin might be used in treating diabetes due to its insulin stimulating property and subsequent regulation of apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Chromogranin A (CgA) is an established plasma marker of neuroendocrine tumors and has been suggested to also have a role as biomarker in other diseases. Whether CgA has any role as biomarker in diabetes is, however, unresolved, but its widespread distribution in the secretory granules in endocrine tissues including β cells and α cells in pancreas, and the metabolic effects of its peptide fragments suggest that CgA may play a pathophysiological role in diabetes, and thus also be a potential diabetes biomarker. In this review, we summarize the available information on CgA and some of its functional post-translational cleavage products in diabetes, followed by a discussion of its potential as a plasma marker in diabetes and the methodological concerns involved.

Abstract
AIM The region on chromosome 6p21 (IDDM1) confers the largest part of genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D) with particular human leucocyte antigen (HLA) alleles predisposing and others protecting from it. As T1D is primarily a "sporadic" disease, the pathophysiology must involve gene-environment interactions. We searched for indirect evidence for such major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-environment interactions by asking two questions: (i) can the degree of an HLA association vary over time periods? and (ii) if a prenatal event like an intrauterine infection - that might cluster in seasons - leads to differences of HLA associations in patients with particular birth months? METHODS We screened the Type 1 Diabetes Genetics Consortium (T1DGC) database (in addition our own database and the original UK, US and SCAND databases) for MHC DR-DQ and CTLA4 associations. First, we separated the groups of patients with onset of disease before 1980 in comparison with onset after 1980. Second, we analysed the data according to dates of birth (grouped in months). Not all patients' dates of birth or manifestation periods were available, leading to different group sizes. There were 282 patients analysed for manifestation periods and 329 for birth month. RESULTS The cohorts of manifestation before 1980 demonstrated a significantly lower frequency of DQ2/X (2 vs. 14.2%; p = 0.03). There was a trend for DQ8/x to be more frequent for manifestations before 1980 (34 vs. 21.6%; p < 0.10). Other alleles did not differ significantly. The months of birth were not evenly distributed. Significant deviations from the whole group were seen in August (DQ2/8 trough and DQx/x high), whereas birth in September was more frequent in DQ8/x or DQ8/8 carriers. This pattern was significantly different from the expected distribution of months at birth (13.9 vs. 7.6%; p < 0.04). CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate the feasibility of an analysis that searches for indirect evidence of gene-environment interactions. These preliminary data need to be confirmed in larger data sets.
