Hyperglycemia and possible mechanisms of β-cell damage in patients with COVID-19

Progressive decrease in the weight and functional reserve of beta-cells is one of the main pathogenetic mechanisms of development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) The rate of progression of these processes is strictly individual, which largely determines the course of DM2 and the effectiveness of the therapy As a rule, apoptosis and necrosis are the main mechanisms of beta-cell damage and death in CD2 At the same time, recent studies allow us to consider the destruction and death of beta-cells as the outcome of other types of programmed cell death (PCG), the role of innate immunity in the Genesis of CD2 IS actively discussed This article provides an overview of the data of domestic and foreign literature of recent years regarding the molecular, intracellular characteristics of different types of beta-cell PCG in CD2 The results of studies aimed at studying the possible factors and processes leading to their launch are presented
