Abstract excerpt
The B-lymphocyte marker CD72 has multiple alleles and serves crucial and nonredundant roles in B-cell development and activation. B-lymphocytes play an important role in development of autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice, therefore we examined the patterns of expression of CD72 and its alloantigens on splenic lymphocytes from 4-week-old NOD/LtJ mice. Comparisons of CD72 expression were made between NOD mice and three...
