Analysis of genetic regulation of chicken spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis, an animal model of human Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

abstract：:The immune response to bovine insulin (BI) in the rat is controlled by the major histocompatibility complex (Mhc)-linked immune response gene (Ir-BI) and immune suppression gene (Is-BI). In the present study, we investigated the low responsiveness to BI in the WKAH rat (RT1k) and attempted to explore the functional li...
