Abstract

IL-22RA1 is highly expressed on pancreatic islets and absent on immune cells. Here, the authors investigate its role by generating animals that lack IL-22RA1 on beta cells and reveal IL22RA1 signalling is critical for insulin biosynthesis and beta-cell health, evidenced by its regulation of MHC II expression and its suppressive effect on inflammation and cellular stress.
