T cell-directed immunosuppression only transiently delays the loss of β cell function in
recent-onset type 1 diabetes. We argue here that the underlying disease process is carried
by innate immune reactivity. Inducing a non-polarized functional state of local innate
immunity will support regulatory T cell development and β cell proliferation.
