Abstract excerpt
To study the genetic control of insulitis in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, we performed breeding studies in crosses of NOD with non-diabetic strains, ICR-L-line Ishibe (ILI), non-obese non-diabetic (NON) and C3H/He mice. The ILI mouse serologically shared the same MHC Class I and Class II as the NOD mouse. Insulitis was defined as islets invaded by lymphoid cells. Periductular, perivascular and peri-insular...
