Abstract:
:The nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of type 1 diabetes (T1D) was discovered by coincidence in the 1980s and has since been widely used in the investigation of T1D and diabetic complications. The current in vivo study was originally designed to prospectively assess whether hyperglycemia onset is associated with physical destruction or functional impairment of beta cells under inflammatory insult during T1D progression in diabetes-prone female NOD mice. Prediabetic 16- to 20-wk-old NOD mice were transplanted with green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing reporter islets in the anterior chamber of the eye (ACE) that were monitored longitudinally, in addition to glycemia, with and without immune modulation using anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody therapy. However, there was an early and vigorous immune reaction against the GFP-expressing beta cells that lead to their premature destruction independent of autoimmune T1D development in progressor mice that eventually became hyperglycemic. This immune reaction also occurred in nonprogressor NOD recipients. These findings showed a previously unknown reaction of NOD mice to GFP that prevented achieving the original goals of this study but highlighted a new feature of the NOD mice that should be considered when designing experiments using this model in T1D research.
