Abstract
Passive transfer of streptozotocin induced diabetes mellitus in mice is shown. Transplants of spleen cells from BALB/c mice, streptozotocin treated for 5 days, induced diabetes in normal BALB/c recipients. Treatment of transplants with anti-.theta. and complement resulted in a significant decrease in the degree of diabetes. Athymic nude mouse recipients of BALB/c background also developed diabetes after transplant of spleen cells from syngeneic and allogeneic (C57/B1/6) donors. Passive transfer of chemically induced diabetes in mice is practicable, in syngeneic and allogeneic combinations; thymus derived lymphocytes are significant in this process.Keywords
