Data on morphometric analysis of the pancreatic islets from C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice
نویسندگان
چکیده
The endocrine portion of the pancreas, which is characterized by pancreatic islets, has been widely investigated among different species. The BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice are extensively used in experimental research, and the morphometric differences in the pancreatic islets of these animals have not been evaluated so far. Thus, our data have a comparative perspective related to the morphometric analysis of area, diameters, circularity, and density of pancreatic islets from BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. The data presented here are focused to evaluate the differences in morphology of pancreatic islets of two common laboratory mouse strains.

Western Blot Analysis of Sera from Leishmania major-Infected BALB/c and C57BL/6 Mice
In Leishmania (L.) major-infected BALB/c mice Th2-type cells results in disease progression, whereas C57BL/6-infected mice mount a Th1-type response, which leads to control of the infection. Th2 response correlates with IgG1 whereas, Th1 response supports switching to IgG2a subclasses. Since IgG isotype-dominated response depends on different CD4 + T cell subsets, we studied the antigenic profi...

Background & Aims: Previous studies demonstrated that immunomodulation maybe a helpful approach for treatment of diabetes type 1. L-glutamine, a non toxic inducer of heat shock proteins (HSP), has immunomodulatory effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of this drug on the level of fasting blood sugar and pancreases lesions in male C57BL/6 diabetic mice.Materials & Methods: D...
متن کاملInterferon Gamma Unresponsiveness Due to Down-Regulation of IFN-γR Expression in Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
It is now well documented that interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is the indispensable cytokine for inducing protective immunity against experimental and human cutaneous leishmaniaisis. The importance of IFN-γ receptor (IFN-γR) has also been studied. In the present study, we made attempts to find out whether L. major infection is able to alter the expression of IFN-γR in vivo. In addition, we studied the...
