The article presents the discussion on immune and metabolic effects of antigen-specific immunotherapy through multiple b-cell–specific peptides in type 1 diabetes. Topics include using a popular method for estimating the number of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in peripheral blood; and convenient separation of the CD25 intensity of expression into four scales.
