متن کاملMapping of murine diabetogenic gene mody on chromosome 7 at D7Mit258 and its involvement in pancreatic islet and beta cell development during the perinatal period.
Mutation of the murine maturity-onset diabetes mellitus of the young (Mody) locus induces diabetes, but the effects of its homozygosity on the pancreas remain unknown. F2 mice were obtained by F1 (diabetic C57BL6 x normal Mus musculus castaneus) crosses. About 20% of the F2 progeny developed diabetes by 2 wk of age, 50% of the progeny were normal at 2 wk and developed diabetes between 5 and 8 w...
متن کاملRapid screening of environmental chemicals for estrogen receptor binding capacity.
Over the last few years, an increased awareness of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and their potential to affect wildlife and humans has produced a demand for practical screening methods to identify endocrine activity in a wide range of environmental and industrial chemicals. While it is clear that in vivo methods will be required to identify adverse effects produced by these chemicals, i...
متن کاملSlc11a1 Enhances the Autoimmune Diabetogenic T-Cell Response by Altering Processing and Presentation of Pancreatic Islet Antigens
OBJECTIVE Efforts to map non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes causing type 1 diabetes in NOD mice identified Slc11a1, formerly Nramp1, as the leading candidate gene in the Idd5.2 region. Slc11a1 is a membrane transporter of bivalent cations that is expressed in late endosomes and lysosomes of macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). Because DCs are antigen-presenting cells (APCs) know...
متن کاملPancreatic precursors and differentiated islet cell types from murine embryonic stem cells: an in vitro model to study islet differentiation.
Embryonic stem (ES) cells differentiating in vitro reproduce many facets of early embryonic development, including the expression of developmentally regulated transcription factors and the differentiation of multipotent precursor cells. ES cells were evaluated for their ability to differentiate into pancreatic and islet lineage-restricted stages including pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1)-p...
