The aim of this study was to investigate whether neonatal glucose treatment influences the incidence of diabetes in NOD mice. Thirty-nine NOD mice (19 males, 20 females) were treated with 8 g glucose/kg BW/day administered by subcutaneous injections twice a day for the first six days of life. Thirty-six untreated NOD mice (20 males, 16 females) served as a control group. In the glucose-treated group, 33% became diabetic compared with 58% in the control group (X2 = 5.3, p = 0.021). Among the glucose-treated males, 16% became diabetic compared with 50% of the untreated males (X2 = 5.5, p = 0.019), whereas 50% of the glucose-treated females became diabetic compared with 69% of the untreated females (X2 = 1.1, NS). We conclude that neonatal glucose treatment can reduce the diabetes incidence in NOD mice. These results could have implications for the prevention of type 1 diabetes mellitus in humans.

D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
