• islets isolated from mutant mice show decreased cell death in response to treatment with Il-1 and IFN gamma

• spontaneous diabetes (blood glucose >12 mmol/l) is delayed in mutants slightly but significantly in female knockouts kept to 350 days of age
• adoptive tranfer of splenocytes from transgenic mice carrying the Tg(TcraBDC2.5)1Doi transgene into knockout recipients led to diabetes after a significant delay compared to diabetes development in wild-type recipients (100% in wild-type by 12 days versus 100% in knockouts by 20 days)
