Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by the autoimmune destruction of β-cells in the pancreatic islets. T1D is preceded by islet-specific inflammation led by several immune cells. Among them, natural killer (NK) cells are emerging as important players in T1D development. Human NK cells are characterized by CD56 and CD16 expression, which allows classifying NK cells into four subsets 1) CD56dimCD16+ or effector NK cells (NKeff); 2) CD56brightCD16- or regulatory NK cells (NKreg); 3) intermediate CD56brightC
