Animals from a colony of spontaneously diabetic insulin-dependent BB rats were fed from weaning with semi-synthetic diets in which natural proteins were replaced by l-amino acids with or without the addition of either milk or wheat proteins. The normal 50% incidence of diabetes in the colony was red

## Recombinant interleukin 2 enhances spontaneous insulin-dependent diabetes in BB rats* Treatment of BB rats with recombinant interleukin 2 (IL2) enhanced the development of spontaneous diabetes in these animals. A dose of 20 pg IL2ikg body weight was administered twice daily for 80 days starting
The effects of chronic high sucrose feeding for 1 month on in vivo and in vitro insulin secretion and on in vivo insulin action were studied in rats with non-insulin-dependent diabetes. As compared to the standard diet, the high sucrose diet induced an increase of the in vivo insulin response to an
