It has been recently demonstrated that apoptosis is involved in beta-cell destruction in the NOD mouse model of diabetes. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether IL-15, a cytokine involved in the modulation of the apoptotic process, is capable of modifying the natural history of diabetes and/or insulitis in pre-diabetic NOD mice. The rationale for the use of IL-15-IgG2b recombinant cytokine is related to its long half-life (28 +/- 4 h).
