Abstract
Renal tissue from 12 dogs with spontaneous diabetes and 16 control dogs were studied by light, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopies. Significant linear staining for immunoglobulin G and albumin were observed in the glomerular and tubular basement membranes of dogs with spontaneous diabetes--similar to that observed in human diabetes. On immunohistochemical grounds, it would appear that the dog with spontaneous diabetes is an appropriate model of diabetes in persons.Entities:
