Success in developing novel therapies to recommence self-tolerance in autoimmunity depends on the induction of T regulatory (Tr) cells. Here, we report that rapamycin combined with interleukin (IL)-10 efficiently blocks type I diabetes development and induces long-term immunotolerance in the absence of chronic immunosuppression in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice. Rapamycin mediates accumulation in the pancreas of suppressive CD4(+)CD25(+) FoxP3(+) Tr cells, which prevent diabetes. IL-10 induces Tr type 1 (Tr1) cells, which reside in the spleen and prevent migration of diabetogenic T-cells to the draining lymph nodes. These two Tr cell subsets act in concert to control diabetogenic T-cells that are still present in long-term tolerant mice. Rapamycin plus IL-10 treatment, promoting distinct subsets of Tr cells, may constitute a novel and potent tolerance-inducing protocol for immune-mediated diseases.
