• mice exhibit increased infiltration of lymphocytes in the salivary gland

• however, no evidence of inflammatory infiltration is seen in the colon, lung, kidney, liver or heart

abnormal pancreatic islet morphology ( J:323838 )

• mice show numerous shrunk islets with a reduction of insulin-positive cells compared to controls which show more structured islets and insulin-secreting beta cells

insulitis ( J:323838 )

• mice exhibit more islets with invasive insulitis at both early prediabetic stage (5-6 weeks) and advanced diabetic stage 12 (12-15 weeks) compared to control NOD/ShiLtJ mice
