In mice, an experimental autoimmune diabetes can be induced by multiple injections with low doses of streptozotocin. Since different mouse strains show a varying susceptibility towards this treatment, we have examined whether the experimental autoimmune diabetes is under the genetic control of the m

Major histocompatibility complex-linked immune response genes are thought to influence susceptibility to induction of both human insulin-dependent diabetes and murine streptozotocin-induced diabetes. To clarify this relationship, we administered streptozotocin intravenously in two doses (120 and 240
The genetic control of eosinophilia has been studied in congenic strains of mice. Eosinophilia was induced with cyclophosphamide followed by keyhole limpet hemocyanin in complete Freund's adjuvant. After this treatment, BALB/c mice developed a high eosinophil response, whereas CBA, C57BL and A/J mic
