The percentage, absolute number and expression of Ia-antigen of macrophages (Mø) in peripheral blood cells (PBC) and splenocytes from Bio-Breeding/Worcester (BB/W) rats were evaluated. The percentage of Mø in PBC and splenocytes from BB/W rats was significantly higher than those in normal Wistar rats from Clea Japan Inc. (NW/C) and Charles River Japan Inc. (NW/CR). The percentage of Ia-positive Mø in PBC and splenocytes from BB/W rats was significantly increased compared with that in NW/C rats. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in the percentage of Ia-positive Mø of PBC between BB/W and NW/CR rats, and the percentage of Ia-positive Mø in the spleen from BB/W rats was significantly lower than those in NW/CR rats. Thus, the quantity of MHC class II molecules on circulating Mø is not related to the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus in BB/W rats.
对Bio-Breeding/Worcester(BB/W)大鼠外周血细胞(PBC)和脾细胞中巨噬细胞(Mø)的Ia抗原百分比、绝对数量和表达进行了评估。BB/W大鼠PBC和脾细胞中Mø的百分比显著高于日本Clea公司(NW/C)和日本Charles River公司(NW/CR)的正常Wistar大鼠。与NW/C大鼠相比,BB/W大鼠PBC和脾细胞中Ia阳性Mø的百分比显著增加。另一方面,BB/W大鼠和NW/CR大鼠PBC中Ia阳性Mø的百分比无显著差异,且BB/W大鼠脾脏中Ia阳性Mø的百分比显著低于NW/CR大鼠。因此,循环中Mø上MHC II类分子的数量与BB/W大鼠糖尿病的发病机制无关。
