It's not an 'immune system'. As for an 'immune system disorder', which I'm sure is what you must have meant, it depends on the TYPE of Diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes - autoimmune disease (body attacks the pancreas cells that produce insulin, so they lack the insulin to tell muscles to absorb glucose from the blood stream). They have high glucose levels but low insulin levels.
Type 2 diabetes - the pancreas cells are fine, and are spurting out insulin left, right and centre. The problem is that the muscle cells are just tired of insulin's crap, and don't want to listen any more (there are less RECEPTORS to ACKNOWLEDGE that the insulin is there, so it's like it isn't even there!). They have high glucose AND high insulin levels.

How does diabetes effect the immune system?
by destroying wbc
What negative effects the ingredient sugar has on the human body if too much is eaten?
can cause kidney damage, diabetes, and it suppresses the immune system sugar can cause kidney damage, diabetes, and it can also suppress the immune system
Why is suppressing the immune system unadvisable in patients with type I diabetes?
People with type I diabetes are already at risk for autoimmune problems, are more prone to infections, and have a complicated medical history that makes suppressing the immune system unadvisable.
Is diabetes inheritable?
Genes determine whether you would inherit Diabetes or not. Diabetes is dependent on the immune system. The immune system is in turn dependent on genes. If there is any imbalance in the immune system, it triggers an autoimmune reaction. Other factors like gender, diet and body reaction also play a role in determining if you would inherit diabetes or not.
What are the genetic relationship between the lupus and type 1 diabetes?
genetic relationship between the lupus and type 1 diabetes is important because immune system have in relation with lymphatic system
Is Diabetes a chromosomal error?
you have to be much more specific in your question. there are many types of diabetes- type one diabetes, type two diabetes, diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus. I, personally, am actually a type one diabetic (diabetes mellitus). This is not due to chromosomal error. No one is precisely sure as to how one acquires diabetes, but my doctor's believe I caught a virus which tricked my immune system to thinking my pancreas was sick, when it was in fact not. My immune system then killed my beta cells. Or alpha. I don't know haha. Hope this helps.
What immune system disorders attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas?
Type 1 diabetes
What disorders influence the healing of scar tissue?
diabetes, lupus, scleroderma, and other disorders that compromise body's immune system.
Does the endocrine system affect diabetes?
== == Yes. High blood levels of glucose can cause several problems, including frequent urination, excessive thirst, hunger, fatigue, weight loss, and blurry vision. However, because type 2 diabetes develops slowly, some people with high blood sugar experience no symptoms at all.
Is type 1 diabetes a sex linked gene?
No, type 1 diabetes is not a sex-linked gene. It is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Both males and females can develop type 1 diabetes.
Is there a surgery for type 2 diabetes to temporarily stop the need of insulin?
Yes, there is a surgical option that can help some people with type 2 diabetes reduce or temporarily stop the need for insulin, but it is not suitable for everyone. This is known as metabolic or bariatric surgery (such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy). These procedures can improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control, and in some people, lead to partial or temporary diabetes remission, especially when excess weight is a contributing factor. That said, surgery works best when combined with a comprehensive treatment approach, which may include medications, insulin when required, dietary changes, physical activity, and regular monitoring. Many people continue to benefit from a combination therapy approach even after surgery to maintain stable blood sugar levels long term. It’s important to note that: Surgery does not cure type 2 diabetes Blood sugar control can change over time Ongoing medical supervision remains essential A personalised treatment plan, guided by an endocrinologist, helps determine whether surgery along with combination therapy is appropriate for long-term diabetes management.
Who is at risk for Onychomycosis?
Individuals who are especially susceptible include those with chronic diseases such as diabetes and circulatory problems and those with diseases that suppress the immune system
