Description:
Examination of the histocompatibility region of the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse with antibodies against class II glycoproteins (products of immune response genes of the major histocompatibility complex I-A and I-E), hybrid T-cell clones, and mixed-lymphocyte cultures and analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms indicate that the NOD mouse has a unique class II major histocompatibility complex with no expression of surface I-E, no messenger RNA for I-E alpha, and an I-A not recognized by any monoclonal antibodies or hybrid T-cell clones studied. In crosses of NOD mice with control C3H mice, the development of diabetes was dependent on homozygosity for the NOD mouse's unique major histocompatibility region.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hattori, M -- Buse, J B -- Jackson, R A -- Glimcher, L -- Dorf, M E -- Minami, M -- Makino, S -- Moriwaki, K -- Kuzuya, H -- Imura, H -- AM07009-01/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- AM32083-03/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Feb 14;231(4739):733-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3003909" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
