For what reason(s) do auto-antibodies anti-insulin could be elevated in the blood of mice?

10 October 2017 0 7K Report

Hi,

I have a mutant mouse model in which there are increased auto-antibodies against insulin in the blood. Does someone know why these autoantibodies could be elevated in mouse blood?

Thank you.
