Lessons from Animal Diabetes VI

Více o knize

Focusing on genetic constructs, this collection features five articles discussing B-cell functions in transgenic animals and their implications for diabetes complications. The section on non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) includes ten articles that explore diverse models and their unique genetic characteristics and pathogenesis. Various animal models are reviewed, such as OLETF rats and db/db mice. The editorial board welcomes new members while honoring the contributions of former editors and remembering the late Dr. Otho Michaelis IV for his work on corpulent rat strains.
