description Khalid Siddiqui,* Shaik Sarfaraz Nawaz* Strategic Center for Diabetes Research, College of Medicine, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia*These authors contributed equally to this workCorrespondence: Khalid Siddiqui, Strategic Center for Diabetes Research, College of Medicine, King Saud University, P.O. Box 245, Riyadh, 11411, Saudi Arabia, Tel +966 114724179 Ext.3106 ; +966 530202763, Email ksiddiqui@ksu.edu.saAbstract: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that destroys pancreatic beta cells, which produce insulin in the islets of Langerhans. The risk of developing T1D is influenced by environmental factors, genetics, and autoantibodies. Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a type of T1D that is genetically and phenotypically distinct from classic T1D. This review summarizes the accumulated information on the risk factors for T1D and LADA, and immunotherapy trials that offer insights into potential future combined therapeutic interventions for both T1D and LADA to slow the rate of islet cell loss and preserve beta cell function. Future research should also focus on improving intervention doses, conducting more thorough examinations of intervention responders, and/or combining minimally effective single-target immunotherapies to slow the rate of islet cell loss and preserve beta cell function.Keywords: type 1 diabetes, LADA, immunotherapy, islet cells
