By selectively inbreeding diabetic individuals, we have been able to establish an NOD mouse population with a genetic predisposition towards insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in approximately 100% of cases. We examined the preventive effect of 15-DS or 15DS + CyA on developing IDDM in these animals. Whereas 15-DS has been proved to be effective in preventing diabetes (significant decrease of the diabetic risk ratio to 0.368 and a reduction of the incidence of the disease to 46.7%), combined treatment with CyA did not produce any additional benefit.

D007166 Immunosuppressive Agents Agents that suppress immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-CELLS or by inhibiting the activation of HELPER CELLS. While immunosuppression has been brought about in the past primarily to prevent rejection of transplanted organs, new applications involving mediation of the effects of INTERLEUKINS and other CYTOKINES are emerging.

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.
