Anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies are potent immunosuppressants widely used in clinical transplantation to prevent or treat acute allograft rejection. We have used a hamster monoclonal antibody (145 2C11) specific for the epsilon chain of the murine CD3 complex to treat autoimmune insulin-dependent diabetes appearing spontaneously by 15 to 30 weeks of age in female Non Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice. Mice showing overt disease (glycosuria and glycemia > or = 4 g/l) were randomized in two groups receiving either anti-CD3 (5 micrograms/day i.v. for 5 consecutive days) or an identical dose of hamster polyclonal immunoglobulins. Progressive remission of disease was observed, 3 to 6 weeks after the end of treatment, in 80% of anti-CD3 treated mice as compared to 6% of mice in the control group. This remission was maintained long term namely, during the 4 to 5 months (after the end of treatment) observation period. These results open interesting perspectives on the possibility to treat recently diagnosed diabetic patients with therapy showing long term efficacy and no chronic toxicity.

D012074	Remission Induction	Therapeutic act or process that initiates a response to a complete or partial remission level.	Induction of Remission,Induction, Remission,Inductions, Remission,Remission Inductions
D003922	Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1	A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
