Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus have impaired IL-1? production in response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis.


ABSTRACT: Patients with diabetes mellitus have an increased risk of developing tuberculosis. Although the underlying mechanism is unclear, evidence suggests a role for chronic hyperglycaemia. We examined the influence of hyperglycaemia on Mycobacterium tuberculosis-induced cytokine responses in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 24 male T1D patients with sub-optimal glucose control [HbA1c?>?7.0% (53 mmol/L)] and from 24 age-matched male healthy controls were stimulated with M. tuberculosis lysate. Cytokine analysis, assessment of aerobic glycolysis, receptor recognition and serum cross-over experiments were performed to explore the mechanistic differences. PBMCs from T1D patients produced less bioactive interleukin (IL)-1? in response to M. tuberculosis. IL-6 and interferon (IFN)-? production trended towards a decrease, whilst other cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-?, IL-17 and IL-1Ra were normal. The decrease in cytokine production was not correlated to HbA1c or plasma glucose levels. Cross-over serum experiments did not alter the cytokine profile of T1D or control patients, arguing for an intrinsic cellular defect. Cellular metabolism and the expression of M. tuberculosis-related pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as TLR2, TLR4 and NOD2 did not differ between T1D patients and healthy controls. Compared to matched controls, T1D patients have a reduced capacity to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines in response to M. tuberculosis. The impaired IL-1? production in T1D patients may contribute to the increased susceptibility to tuberculosis. This effect appears not to be related to prevailing glucose levels but to an intrinsic cellular deficit.
