Relationship between Immunological Abnormalities in Rat Models of Diabetes Mellitus and the Amplification Circuits for Diabetes

Figure 1

Relationships between phagocytosis and CD11b/c and between body weight and CD3 in the G-K/Wistar strains and Zucker strains. (a) Relationship between phagocytic ability and CD11b/c expression levels in G-K/Wistar and Zucker strain rats. (b) Relationship between body weight and CD3 ratio in lymphocytes in G-K/Wistar and Zucker strain rats. Bubble size indicates standard error, and bubble color shows each rat strain as follows: deep blue, ZL; light blue, ZF; green, ZDF; yellow, Wistar; red, G-K. The bubble charts were drawn using Graph-R software, version 2.19.
