NOD.SCID mice that received Eif4ebp2 −/− nondiabetic lymphocytes exhibited significantly lower fasting glucose levels when compared with the control diabetic lymphocyte group and a tendency toward significance when compared with the Eif4ebp2 −/− diabetic lymphocyte group ( Fig. 4 D ). β-Cell mass was low in all groups, except in the mice that received Eif4ebp2 −/− nondiabetic lymphocytes ( Fig. 4 E ), in which the highest diabetes free incidence was seen ( Fig. 4 B ).
