Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) has traditionally been understood through the lens of autoimmune destruction pancreatic beta cells. However, emerging evidence suggests that defects in peritoneal membrane, particularly tail, may play a significant role disease's pathogenesis. This study explores "Peritoneal Protection Hypothesis," which posits integrity membrane is crucial maintaining cell function and preventing autoimmune-mediated destruction. We review biochemical immunological mechanisms could contribute to beta-cell dysfunction T1DM onset. By integrating novel insights into biology with current theories, we provide comprehensive framework redefine understanding etiology highlight potential therapeutic avenues.

T lymphocytes that infiltrate the tumor microenvironment (TME) often fail to function as effective anti-cancer agents. Within TME, cell-to-cell inhibitory interactions play significant roles in dampening their anti-tumor activities. Recent studies have revealed soluble factors released TME by immune and non-immune cells, well cells themselves, contribute exacerbation of cell exhaustion. Our understanding cytokine landscape interrelationships, impact on cancer development is still at its early stages. In this review, we aim shed light Interleukin (IL) -6, IL-9, IL-10, a small group JAK/STAT signaling-dependent cytokines harboring cell-suppressive effects summarize mechanisms action. Additionally, will explore how advancements scientific research can help us overcoming obstacles posed suppress tumors, with ultimate objective stimulating further investigations for novel therapeutic strategies counteract tumor-promoting
