Characteristics

The strain is an insulin-resistant and diabetes-free strain which carries the diabetogenic

H2g7

complex on chromosome 17. Although completely resistant to cyclophosphamide-induced diabetes, the mice have peripheral T-lymphocyte accumulation characteristic of NOD/Lt. Similarly, the peritoneal macrophages show the depressed interleukin-1 secretion seen in NOD, but the T-suppressor lymphocyte function is more robust. The strain may be regarded as an MHC-matched diabetes-resistant control strain for NOD/Lt (

Prochazka et al 1992

).
