Acute phase AIP responds favorably to corticosteroid therapy and results in the amelioration of clinical findings. However, the long-term prognosis ...
متن کاملLEW.1WR1 rats develop autoimmune diabetes spontaneously and in response to environmental perturbation.
We describe a new rat model of autoimmune diabetes that arose in a major histocompatibility complex congenic LEW rat. Spontaneous diabetes in LEW.1WR1 rats (RT1(u/u/a)) occurs with a cumulative frequency of approximately 2% at a median age of 59 days. The disease is characterized by hyperglycemia, glycosuria, ketonuria, and polyuria. Both sexes are affected, and islets of acutely diabetic rats ...

In most animal taxa, longevity increases with body size across species, as predicted by the oxidative stress theory of aging.

We explore two datasets for dogs and find support for a negativ...
