Independent genetic regulation of T-cell and antigen-presenting cell participation in autoimmune islet inflammation.
1 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
Genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse involves at least 17 Idd loci. Idd1 has been mapped to a class II gene in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), whereas the products and functions of the remaining Idd loci are unresolved. To investigate how non-MHC Idd genes regulate islet inflammation and IDDM progression, NOD mice were compared with the nonobese...
