Abstract

Background The earliest histological signs of autoimmunity in female NOD mice occur at approximately 4 weeks of age. We hypothesized that defects associated with these events may be evident in the molecular signatures of spleen leukocytes. To gain a detailed insight into these early molecular defects we analyzed the transcriptomes of CD4 Tlymphocytes, the predominant leukocyte subset involved in autoimmune diabetes.
