– A highly sensitive proteomics platform enables extracellular vesicle (EV) analysis from minimal plasma volumes.
– Proteomics analysis of auto-antibody positive plasma identifies potential biomarkers.
– Beta cell EVs carrying PD-L1 reduce CD8 T cell activation.
– Plasma EV PD-L1 cargo correlates with residual C-peptide in AAb+ individuals and in individuals with new-onset T1D
