The non-obese diabetic mouse (NOD mouse) is widely used as a model of organ-specific autoimmunity because it develops specific autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells mediated by T cells and culminating in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Here, we report that the NOD mouse also develops

Anemia is common in patients with type 2 diabetes. This aims at determining long-term effects of nitrate administration on diabetes-induced anemia in obese type 2 diabetic rats.Male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: Control, control + nitrate, A megaloblastic anemia occurred in a middle-aged woman 6 years after a gastric bypass performed for obesity. Marked deficiencies of both vitamin B12 and folic acid were demonstrated. The Schilling test revealed that the vitamin B12 deficiency was due primarily to inadequate intrinsic factor. Vitamin
